atlas-3.8.4 package does not compile on rhel 5 systems, upgrade to atlas-3.10.0

[sagetrac-jrasch]

Compilation of Sage-5.2 fails with an error inside the atlas-3.8.4 package.
However the latest atlas-3.10.0 version compiles fine.
I therefore propose that the package be updated to the latest release for the next release of sage.

My sense is that this is a dup of #10508. Can you try the spkg posted there?

Ping - that spkg has now apparently reached final form. I don't know how many people have access to an RHEL system.

The buildbot machine "rosemary" has RHEL 5.8 (the problematic version according to the sage-devel post), but atlas-3.8.4 builds fine on that machine. Skynet machine cleo also has RHEL IIRC but it's unaccessible now.

OP:

on the latest HP 
ProLiant ml110 G7 system

Do you think that the actual machine hardware would make a difference?

I have no idea. The original poster is unresponsive, so it's hard to find out. Since the problem is fixed by upstream atlas-3.10.0, let's assume #10508 also fixes it.
