I'm simply saying that I have always been very careful with GCC upgrades 
(among a few others), and I have always kept the prior version around, 
using gcc-select to switch to the new version after the upgrade.

I guess the only explanation if what you guys are saying is correct is 
that I've never done a minor upgrade for the version in the current slot...

Weird...
