 Should we ask Microsoft if we can make `paint` a standard spkg as well?

 ----

 Stop environmental pollution...

 We already have nice environment variables like "`R`" and "`PYTHON`"; can
 we rename it to e.g. `GNU_PATCH` in `spkg/install` and
 `spkg/standard/deps`?

 ----

 P.S.: Why not add the `patch` spkg to `$(BASE)` (and make it depend on the
 previous three `$(BASE)` packages)?

 As is, '''all''' standard spkgs will get rebuilt on an upgrade (to a
 version of Sage with `patch` "newly" included) anyway. (Therefore I would
 actually prefer adding `patch` as a dependency selectively.
 `spkg/standard/deps` will be under revision control soon...)
