I'm marking it as invalid.   I wrote the patch, and I suggested this, but
things have got better and better regarding "sage -upgrade", and we
should really aim to do things right and have "sage -upgrade" just work
when possible.

It might be a very good idea to have "sage -upgrade" interactively ask
the user if they "really want to do this" if they are upgrading a binary.
If a user built from source in the first place, "sage -upgrade" is pretty
likely to work (or at least, should be supported).  If they installed a binary,
it's reasonable to worry.

Alternatively, maybe "sage -upgrade" should always interactively have
a little quiz... :-).
