The tests for that are optional - we can't assume every system with
Sage has the right stuff, unfortunately.  Why the VM image *and*
Ubuntu binaries don't have it is a mystery; my guess is that they are
compiled on some virtual machine on some other machine, and that the
virtual machine is a minimal setup.  I don't know where those binaries
are created, though.
