The is a libgcc_s.so.1 picked p from the binary G95 that Sage ships.

Nope, build a copy of Sage that doesn't use the binary G95, but the
system gfortran compiler. From README.txt:
NOTE: If you're using Fortran on a platform without g95 binaries
included
with Sage, e.g., Itanium, you must use a system-wide gfortran.
You
have to explicitly tell the build process about the fortran
compiler and library location. Do this by typing
export SAGE_FORTRAN=/exact/path/to/gfortran
export SAGE_FORTRAN_LIB=/path/to/fortran/libs/libgfortran.so
Deleting the G95 binary and rebuilding the spkgs which use Fortran
will also work, but that is a rather complicated thing to do unless
you know exactly what you are doing :)
Let us know if you run into any trouble.
