Success. I logged in under my other name, and sage compiled. No idea
why, but I'm happy. Thanks for the hand-holding: I learned a bit more

OK, distinct signs of progress. The root password remains mysterious;
the login password is under control; and the .sage directory now seems
pretty accessible:
dispo-82-248-128-135:~ ferrenmacintyre$ cd .sage/
dispo-82-248-128-135:.sage ferrenmacintyre$ ls -l

Then I'm REALLY glad we are changing the README in the next release!
That file just gives a hypothe
Good point. However, I copied the version number from the README file,

I also have installed XCode 3.2, with GCC 4.2.1 build 5646, which may
