Editing those files in place is the way to go. Just make sure to check in
your changes, e.g., by doing "hg_sage.ci()" before doing "sage -upgrade".
What will happen is that during "sage -upgrade" your changes will be
*merged* with the new version of SAGE.
Alternatively, you can do
sage -clone myver
and get a clone devel/sage-myver/. This won't be touched during
"sage -upgrade", no matter what -- "sage -upgrade" only touches
devel/sage-main/.

I've been meaning to split that file up for a long time, in some logical
way. Does anybody want to do this?
