I tried to build sage-3.0.3 on my work system, a 64 bit dual core,
dual Xeon system running RHEL 4, I believe (output of cat /proc/
version shows:

Linux version 2.6.9-67.0.1.ELsmp ([EMAIL PROTECTED]
bc1-14.build.redhat.com) (gcc version 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat
3.4.6-9)) #1 SMP Fri Nov 30 11:57:43 EST 2007

and uname -a shows:

Linux mcneil.ca.boeing.com 2.6.9-67.0.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Nov 30
11:57:43 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


While most libraries that were built were 64-bit, for some reason or
another the build of the various pieces of libgmp were done with
ABI=32 and this caused a failure to complete the sage build process
later on.

I was able to download, build and install the libgmp stuff to the
sage-3.0.3/local directory  (first time without the --enable-cxx flag)
and that build process correctly built the 64 bit versions.  I then
continued the make process for sage and sage completed its build
without any errors, apparently successfully.  However, when trying to
run sage the first time I get  a core dump with a message


 ./sage

Segmentation fault      (core dumped) sage-ipython "$@" -c

which suspiciously looks like another possible inconsistency in 32 bit
versus 64 bit installation characteristics.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Boeing Commercial Airplanes a few weeks ago.
