Comment(by jdemeyer):

 "presidence" sould be "precedence"

 Why is {{{patches/shobj-conf}}} under revision control?  I believe it is
 sufficient for the patch file to be under revision control (but putting
 the ''patched'' files also under revision control might be the usual Sage
 practice).

 I don't like {{{"$CC" -flags > /dev/null 2>&1}}} ({{{spkg-install}}} line
 43) for various reasons:
  * I don't think $CC is supposed to be quoted because people might do
 things like CC="gcc -m64"
  * You should redirect stdin from {{{/dev/null}}} in case $CC wants to
 read from stdin.
  * Instead of checking for Sun's compiler, why not check explicitly for
 {{{gcc}}} using
 {{{
 $CC </dev/null >/dev/null 2>/dev/null --version |grep >/dev/null gcc
 }}}
