I assume you will have an spkg that contains your BSD licensed code,
but just uses some bits of the Sage building system to build it. That
is perfectly legal and does not cause any issues with the GPL.

Yes, absolutely. I just wanted to make sure no one slabbed BSD license
headers on top of scripts I have significantly contributed to without
