 Replying to [comment:40 vbraun]:
 > Well this is a spectacular bandaid to work around compiler breakage :-)

 I totally agree with this by the way, but in my opinion there are two
 things we can do:
  1. Use -O3 always and leave the user with a non-compiling Sage ("it's not
 our fault, it's gcc's fault")
  1. Do the optimization-fallback as in this spkg.

 I believe making a blacklist of versions known to fail is not a good
 solution because there will always be systems with a broken gcc that we
 don't know of.
