Comment(by GeorgSWeber):

 Hi,

 from a mere "formal/technical" point of view, I would be happy naming Ivan
 the "author" and myself then "reviewing" it ;-)

 As for the commit message,

 "trac #12161: work around some PATH issue, when using the Terminal on OS X
 10.7 Lion, on first start of Sage for a new user"

 might be an alternative choice. As for the testing/reviewing, this needs
 someone with an OS X 10.7 Lion install, of course. I thought about
 creating some "sage-4.8+trac12161-OSX-64bit-10.6-x86_64-Darwin-app.dmg"
 (note the attribution to this trac ticket) and upload it e.g. to
 "http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/weberg/bdist/";, eventually even
 giving eager OS X 10.7 users a pointer to that "unofficial" location.
 But in the end, the "correct" solution for reviewing would be to set up
 some OS X 10.7 machine amongst the buildbots --- we want that anyway,
 since William seems to be inclined to support the LLVM-backend-based gcc,
 that Apple uses in newer XCode (additionally to the FSF-backend based
 gcc).


 @Jeroen:

 How is the status of adding an OS X 10.7 build bot/system to the Sage
 deployment machine park? Has this task been started (or even thought of)
 yet?


 Cheers,
 Georg
