I'm wondering if anyone has any pointers on an error I'm getting.

In a schroot+debootstrap environment using Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64, I can
extract and run the binary of Sage 4.7 as root. I can also extract,
build, and run sage from source as root. Both of these fail in the
same way when I chown a built sage to my sageserver user, or when I
extract, build and run as sageserver. At the end of a build, I get:

  File "/opt/sage/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sage/interfaces/gap.py",
line 912, in _start
    raise RuntimeError, msg
RuntimeError: Unable to start gap because the command 'gap -r -b -p -T
-o 9999G /opt/sage/data//extcode/gap/sage.g' failed.

Some info:
- All of the dependencies for building sage are installed within my
10.04 chroot.
- Both the binary and the source build do function normally under the
root user in the chroot.
- The sageserver user is a fresh account (.e.g, no gaprc that could be
messing things up) and the schroot mounts are functioning fine
(allowing sage to read/write to /home/sageserver/.sage outside of the
chroot).

What am I missing?
