Interesting. I expect I'll find out the gory details soon enough -
still in the process of adapting my scripts, then I'll boot my
haswell in 8.3 and try updating to 1.32.0, brief test, then 1.31.1
and switch the symlink.

Why a boot script ? My theory is that only cbindgen, gdb (for the
testsuite), firefox, librsvg, thunderbird need to know about it.
So I'm thinking of the SAVEPATH approach like in LVM2, but put
/opt/rustc/bin at the front.
And I'm particularly interested in the possibility of reverting to
an older version.
