In fact, whenever sage-the-distribution pretends to package a software "foo" version "3.14", but patches it left and right, breaking both the API and the ABI, that is a problem not only for debian, but for all serious distributions...
But what's the solution?
I think it's not realistic to require Sage to only depend on unpatched stable versions of packages. PARI is especially bad because PARI has an enormous gap between GIT master. Excluding bug-fix releases, there are *years* between stable releases of PARI.
