 I've been testing openSUSE lately - and theory and practice are completely
 reversed. Sage does not build on 11.1 due to readline 5.x being the
 default there. Whereas on openSUSE 11.2 and 11.3, Sage builds properly (a
 recent 4.6.1.rc0 snapshot).
 However, I'm not sure how to test if my final Sage 'works' w.r.t. the
 readline/bash problem, so I will only claim that it builds and sage starts
 properly.
