William, On my x86-Linux and x86_64-Linux boxes, sage-2.5.3 builds and successfully passes all tests if built using gcc-4.1.2.
Using the lastest stable release of the gcc compiler suite (gcc-4.2.0), linbox fails to build. The first few errors are g++ -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"liblinboxwrap\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"liblinboxwrap\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"0.0.1\" "-DPACKAGE_STRING=\"liblinboxwrap 0.0.1\"" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" -DPACKAGE=\"liblinboxwrap\" -DVERSION=\"0.0.1\" -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_SYS_STAT_H=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 -DHAVE_MEMORY_H=1 -DHAVE_STRINGS_H=1 -DHAVE_INTTYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_STDINT_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE_DLFCN_H=1 -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_LINBOX_SOLUTIONS_MINPOLY_H=1 -DHAVE_BLAS=1 -I. -I. -I/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.3-x86_64-Linux-pompey/local/include -fPIC -I/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.3-x86_64-Linux-pompey/local/include -L/home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.3-x86_64-Linux-pompey/local/lib -MT linbox_wrap.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/linbox_wrap.Tpo -c src/linbox_wrap.cpp -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/linbox_wrap.o In file included from src/linbox_wrap.cpp:14: /home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.3-x86_64-Linux-pompey/local/include/linbox/algorithms/blas-domain.h: In member function 'Polynomial& LinBox::BlasMatrixDomain<Field>::charpoly(Polynomial&, const Matrix&) const': /home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.3-x86_64-Linux-pompey/local/include/linbox/algorithms/blas-domain.h:443: error: type/value mismatch at argument 3 in template parameter list for 'template<class Field, class Polynomial, template<class> class Container, class Matrix> class LinBox::BlasMatrixDomainCharpoly' /home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.3-x86_64-Linux-pompey/local/include/linbox/algorithms/blas-domain.h:443: error: expected a template of type 'template<class> class Container', got 'template<class _Tp, class _Alloc> class std::list' /home/kate/sage/sage-2.5.3-x86_64-Linux-pompey/local/include/linbox/algorithms/blas-domain.h: In member function 'std::list<Polynomial, std::allocator<_Tp1> >& LinBox::BlasMatrixDomain<Field>::charpoly(std::list<Polynomial, std::allocator<_Tp1> >&, const Matrix&) const': I don't have time to investigate further right now.
