This confuses me.  How is source'ing local/sage/env any different from what 
normally happens?  Isn't that always source'd once you get into the internals 
of sage batch files?

So, I thought I could answer that question myself:  In local/bin/sage-build we 
call local/bin/sage-env with-out source, but inside of local/bin/sage-env, we 
say you must:  """
#  You must source this; see below!
"""
Thus, I'm thinking that line 45 of sage-build needs 'source ' at the front, 
but I'm too close to my bed-time to actually go test that myself.

I believe that autoconf might have not cared so much about things like this 
because the --prefix option got set which essentially rewrote the environment 
on it's own.
