I'm not so sure prereq is the right place. For a start, one could potentially want to use the scripts in 'prereq' to test for a specific compiler. But more to the point, if you look at prereq, it really does not have anything like this. It could be added to the tar file, but it would be quite easy to make a mistake in updating that tar file, as you would need to copy the files first to $SAGE_LOCAL/bin, then create the tarfile. In contrast, putting them in spkg/base seems less problematic to me.
