== Dependencies ==
 * iconv
 * GNU patch

== Special Update/Build Instructions ==
 * TODO:
   - Perhaps also modify CXXFLAGS (and/or CPPFLAGS).
   - We currently don't use anything of GMP's/MPIR's CC setting, and matching
     with the current compiler (`$CC`) is perhaps suboptimal.
 * Remove some files / directories not needed for Sage from upstream:
     - build.vc* directories (Microsoft Visual C build files)
 * 3.0.0-644faf502c56f97d9accd301965fc57d6ec70868
   was created by running the spkg-src script.
