No we don't, Tim.  End of story.  I pointed out to you that we can't
hope to support this once we adopt the algorithm of running the
verify_install.sh script from the tar ball, and you agreed, as did Raj
and everyone else in the room.  Unless it was your plan just to agree
and go back on it later.  I really feel jerked around on this and worse
yet, deliberately misled by Larry.

What QA does is it's business.  They don't need to count on this, and
we can't support it.  The upgrade process is for upgrading from a
previous release, or upgrading from a previous point release.  If we
try to support upgrading from any arbitrary submittal to any other,
well, we end up with what we have: no work by Larry in some time on
Bobcat/Linux, and the work that he's supposed to be doing hopelessly
behind schedule now.
