 > I may be wrong about this, but if you run "sage -upgrade", then I don't
 think "makefile" gets upgraded.  So if we just modify makefile, we can
 assume that we have pipestatus available to us: people upgrading won't get
 the new makefile, and people building from scratch will have
 spkg/pipestatus.

 You're right.  Your idea is simpler and better.

 I can't test V3 right now, but here or elsewhere, should we rewrite the
 `test` target so it works like the other testing targets?

 On renaming `makefile`:  Does any platform (Windows?) require the current
 name?
