Comment (by fbissey):
As far as I am concerned SAGE_EXTCODE is a place sage shouldn't write at
runtime. On a system wide installation that would be a folder that a user
is not supposed to own. If a sys-admin install sage under /usr/local/sage-
xxx for example, it would resolve to /usr/local/sage-
xxx/local/share/sage/ext and as a sys-admin I object that my users have to
write something there. Their home folder, tmp and any scratch space set
for them is where it should go.
That's my perspective.
