Comment(by fbissey):

 OK. I just completed my first ebuild of a sage-4.8 alpha this afternoon.
 The first I noticed about this is when I ran the doctests as a normal
 user. I do that straight away as this is the only validation test I have.
 A truckload of doctests just failed complaining that they couldn't find
 "sage-started.txt". Actually so many failed that I am almost wondering if
 there is something wrong with the ones that didn't.

 I spent 3 weeks fixing bad fortran code and bad makefiles so I may have
 had a bit of a temper there but it just made my life difficult.

 I am not sure how it helps with #5155 since it adds stuff that actually
 wants access to SAGE_ROOT.

 I'll admit that I skimmed a bit on reading this thread so I won't
 attribute bad intent but using DOT_SAGE has been raised and apparently
 shot down as "system wide install" is not a normal install. You don't have
 to support the kind of stuff I do but it felt like making it more
 difficult knowingly.
