That just means the binary is for a much older machine than yours.
You can either try a different linux binary, or wait for a Mandriva binary.

Sage is 100% local.  It *does not* install any files anywhere else
on your hard drive unless you type "make install", and even then
the install only happens at the very end.  In other words, just delete
the directory where you tried to do the build, and it will be as
if you had never done anything.   Nice, eh?
