I created a package of The GNU Scientific library (GSL) 1.15, which was released
a few weeks ago) and put it here.
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/kirkby/patches/gsl-1.15.spkg
I tried to build sage-4.7.rc3 using this version of gsl rather than the older
one in Sage.
But while all the self-tests of the GSL package pass (with SAGE_CHECK=yes),
there are a couple of doctest failures in Sage. Note, this is a completely fresh
build of Sage-4.7.rc3 on OpenSolaris 06/2009. (Building with the old GSL 1.14
gives 100% pass rate).
So this new GSL gives two new doctest failures.
The first looks like a totally different result. In fact, the difference between
0 and infinity is about as big as you can get!
The second failure looks like there may be some increased verbosity of GSL.
Any comments?
