Comment:

 That will cause me a lot of work in sage-on-gentoo but overall that will
 make my life easier in the long term. I cannot comment on
 trac13123_extcode.patch and trac13123_scripts.patch as I don't know the
 code in there all that well. But for the rest:
 * I will need to check the spkg individually for correctness but I assume
 it will be OK it is the easy part.
 * trac13123_library.patch : I am spotting something that I should have
 reported as a bug a long time ago. In sage/interfaces/gap.py GAP_STAMP is
 created in $SAGE_LOCAL/bin. This is a no-no if sage is installed globally
 and accessible by many users. That means all users would need to be able
 to write to $SAGE_LOCAL/bin to use gap from sage. There is no reason why
 GAP_STAMP has to be stored there. It should be moved to $DOT_SAGE or
 possibly even $GAP_DIR. There is a similar problem with qepcad but your
 patch doesn't touch that particular bit.
