I managed to build sage-4.7.1 on Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot using the
gcc-4.4 compiler. Maybe its helpful for others, this is what I did:

# install compiler
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.6 gcc-4.4-base gcc-4.4 g++-4.4 cpp-4.4
gfortran-4.4

# set up gcc alternatives
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc  /usr/bin/gcc-4.6
100 --slave /usr/bin/cpp cpp /usr/bin/cpp-4.6 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g+
+ /usr/bin/g++-4.6-slave /usr/bin/gfortran gfortran /usr/bin/
gfortran-4.6
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc  /usr/bin/gcc-4.4
80 --slave /usr/bin/cpp cpp /usr/bin/cpp-4.4 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /
usr/bin/g++-4.4 --slave /usr/bin/gfortran gfortran /usr/bin/
gfortran-4.4

# now choose the gcc-4.4 alternative
sudo update-alternatives --config gcc

Now you can successfully build sage-4.7.1. Afterwards make sure you
switch back to the gcc-4.6 compiler using again:

sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
