Comment(by leif):

 Ok, delta patch looks sane (modulo some uppercase/lowercase inconsistency
 in `SPKG.txt`).

 For most directories (except `gmp`), ''"Remove the contents of ..."''
 should read ''"Remove the directory ..."'' (with `rm -rf ...`).

 [[BR]]

 ''Someone^TM^'' should report the unconditional use of `install-sh` etc.
 from "optional" components' subdirectories upstream...

 Also, there should be a way to force the use of a "system" Boehm GC (in
 our case, Sage's) on Darwin as well; haven't checked whether that changed
 in recent releases though.  (We could open a follow-up for that, and
 submit a patch upstream in case this is still necessary.)
