I tried to build sage-5.2.rc0 on an IBM x3650 server. This is fitted with a pair
of quad core Intel Xeon X5460 (3.16 GHz) and has 48 GB RAM. It has CentOS 4.7,
which is a rather old Linux distribution, which is essentially Redhat 4.7.
Sage builds fine, but when producing the documentation, I get 24761 errors like:
"! LaTeX Error: File `utf8.def' not found"
The documentation builds, though it seems slow to do it. But some pages look
like this:

However, when the doc tests are run, everything passes, which seems wrong to me,
if there were problems building the documentation. Can we have a doctest which
checks for this sort of error? Can the documentation check the
documentation????????
It seemed to takes ages to build the documentation, though the long tests, which
were run in parallel, were completed quite quickly.
sage -t --long -force_lib devel/sage/sage/groups/matrix_gps/matrix_group.py

sage -t --long -force_lib devel/sage/sage/modular/arithgroup/arithgroup_perm.py
[28.0 s]

All tests passed!
Total time for all tests: 909.0 seconds
Here is one of the errors, but as I say, there are more than 24,000 of them.
There does not appear to be any file called "utf8.def" on my system.
