needed
for a binary distribution of sage, or for people that will never develop or
upgrade

Comment:

 Tested the patches on sage.math and fresh build of Sage-4.7.1:

 {{{
 bjones@sage:/scratch/bjones/sage-4.7.1$ pwd
 /scratch/bjones/sage-4.7.1
 bjones@sage:/scratch/bjones/sage-4.7.1$ du . -sh
 2.5G    .
 bjones@sage:/scratch/bjones/sage-4.7.1$ du . -s
 2554916 .
 }}}

 {{{
 bjones@sage:/scratch/bjones/sage-4.7.1$ time make micro_release
 ...
 real    0m12.064s
 user    0m2.560s
 sys     0m7.600s
 bjones@sage:/scratch/bjones/sage-4.7.1$ du . -sh
 2.0G    .
 bjones@sage:/scratch/bjones/sage-4.7.1$ du . -s
 2033236 .
 }}}

 So it saved 0.5 GB which is not the 1.0 GB observed by William above. Did
 you remove stuff by hand in that session that the script doesn't touch? Or
 maybe because I built the install from source instead of using a binary
 distribution?

 I'm running `make ptestlong` now, will report back if anything fails.
