Thanks.  Can you post a new README.txt?

It's fully 4.3.1.  However, I'm not going to restart it so that it
shows "4.3.1" until sometime late tonight, to minimize inconvenience
for users, since restarting causes downtime.

Yes.  You should try again with

unset SAGE_CHECK

Sage has never *ever* built with SAGE_CHECK set, as far as I know.

See

   http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7090

   http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7091

etc.

We've hand-inspected the R failures and they are all because of
missing optional R packages that we don't include with Sage.
