Not if you went up a slot, then the old version would still continue to

So my overall method, which included depclean, did allow subsequent runs to use the new updated GCC.

Thank you for clarifying.

I tend to keep old copies of gcc around until I'm sure things play nicely
with the new version:

% gcc-config -l
  [1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-9.3.0
  [2] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-10.2.0 *

 [1] aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-9.3.0 * (cyan *)
 [2] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-10.2.0 * (green *)

The aarch64* came in as part of @openwrt-prerequisites. I should probably remove that as I no longer need it.

Thank you for your input Neil.
