I just updated my MacTeX installation, and it said sagetex was

Yes. I decided that, since people very rarely update their TeX
installations, having SageTeX in TeXLive wasn't a good idea. Right now
on sage-support I'm helping someone with a very mysterious problem that
is probably caused by mismatched sagetex.py/sagetex.sty files.
This puts a pretty big barrier up for people that want to use sagetex.
I thought SageTeX was stable enough that it wouldn't be a problem.
However, wouldn't it be easier to just have a warning message that
versions are incompatible when you run sage on the sagetex .sage file?
Then people could just update their sagetex package when they need to.
Thanks,
Jason
