Just to confirm, that is useless. Palp needs to be complied for different 
dimensions. And you need to be careful with filesystem timestamp 
granularity if you want to do that programmatically, see the palp spkg.

The real test is of course that one can access the 4-d reflexive polytopes 
database, though thats a pretty big spkg to download for the test ;-)

In any case, upstream does not install multiple compiled versions (and 
autotools doesn't really support that either). For better or worse, Sage 
will have to build its own palp for the forseeable future.
