Hi,

In case anybody wants to try out 64-bit Sage on OS X, I posted a binary here:

   
http://wstein.org/home/wstein/binaries/sage-4.1-OSX-10.5-Intel-64bit-i386-Darwin.dmg

Sage almost builds out of the box on 64-bit OS X, except scipy and
ratpoints both fail, and
one has to install a fortran spkg that supports 64bit.  See

   http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6493

(I've fixed both scipy and ratpoints, but refereeing is needed.)

64-bit Sage on OS X is *much* faster than 32-bit in many cases,
especially code that relies on MPIR (where a 3-times speedup is not
unusual).
