> I take your point Leif, you can't check the extra options I added to the
configure script. I think they were helpful and safe. Given that, and to
stop this ticket dragging on any longer, they are best removed. It's one
less thing to worry about.

your changes to CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS, it actually break the code, as the
Boehm header files are no longer found. (I cut and pasted your changes.)
As soon as I undo your changes, so the header files are found.
Yes, with
{{{
#!sh
CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -I\"${SAGE_LOCAL}/include\""
LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -L\"${SAGE_LOCAL}/lib\""
}}}
and
{{{
#!sh
./configure --prefix="$SAGE_LOCAL" --with-gmp-prefix="$SAGE_LOCAL" #
--enable-boehm=system
}}}
`configure` behaves weird (and finally the Lisp build fails for me):

I'd like to see such documented in `SPKG.txt` (''Special Update/Build
Instructions'') and / or `spkg-install` (e.g. `# *don't* quote SAGE_LOCAL
here, since...`), to avoid others touching this spkg running into the same
problem(s).
Clearly there are bugs in `configure`, which might get fixed in future
releases though.
