Yah, you'd need to pass LATEST=2.067.1 in the command line. Then the

"LATEST" detection must go. It makes bisecting impossible.
In general, if we want reproducible builds (and this is required for
reliable bisection of regressions), we can't rely on non-immutable
online resources. Fetching / building stable compiler versions is OK,
but detecting which version is latest right now is not.
Well I trust you can come up with a well-engineered improvement. -- Andrei
