Unfortunately no : the /home/sage/sage-5.5/install.log file has the log of 
the initial install , some (unsuccessful) attempts to install 
database_gap-4.5.7 and a (successfull) installation of database_gap-4.4.12. 
Nothing about my attempts to upgrade.

But this tree has moved : I initially compiled it in my home directory, the 
moved it to the home directory of a newly created "sage" user (I use that 
to offer a notebook server on the local host (and remote users through a 
ssh tunnel...). With 20/20 hindsight, this might have fu^Kdisturbed some 
absolute symlinks... 

Would you like me to try to recreate the problem via fresh 5.5 
compilation/move/upgrade ?

(By the way : 5.6 compilation was successful and uneventful. I'm going to 
make ptestlong tonight.)

Thank you for your help !
