Comment(by drkirkby):

 If 1.5.0rc1 is merged, #7166 can be closed. I don't know about 1.4.1, but
 in any case that is not a critical bug.

 Some time back I made a Solaris-specific change to Numpy, as I wanted to
 get it reviewed with the least hassle - that generally means making it
 Solaris specific, as reviewers are easier to please if it only effects a
 rarer platform.

 But I think the change should be implemented on OS X too. Currently
 there's a really nasty hack on OS X to build Numpy, that involves a script
 called {{{fake_gcc}}}, copying that to {{{$SAGE/LOCAL/bin/gcc}}}, then
 using the fake gcc to build Numpy. Finally this fake gcc file gets
 deleted.

 The far neater option is the way I did it on Solaris. I suggest the
 changes I made for Solaris are implemented whenever {{{SAGE64}}} is set to
 "yes", irrespective of whatever platform it may be. Then all this fake gcc
 rubbish can be removed.

 If you want, I can create a patch.
