Don't use "sage -upgrade" like this!  I always copy the entire Sage
directory first: if I have a directory "sage-4-3.4", then I do

$ cp -pR sage-4.3.4 sage-4.3.5-upgrade
$ cd sage-4.3.5-upgrade
$ ./sage -upgrade

Then if something breaks, I still have the old version.  No, it's not
as fast as just running "sage -upgrade", but it's still a lot faster
than building from scratch.
