Then please change the following in README.txt:

SUPPORTED COMPILERS:
    * Sage builds with GCC >= 3.x and GCC >= 4.1.x.
    * Sage will not build with GCC 2.9.x.
    * WARNING: Don't build with GCC 4.0.0, which is very buggy.
    * Sage has never been built without using GCC compiler.

Though I doupt my issue (below) has anything to do with the version of
GCC, but the assember, as.
