Comment(by tornaria):

 The issue with this patch is that the {{{sage-flags.txt}}} file will not
 be regenerated unless sage install directory changes (because
 {{{write_flags_file()}}} is only called from within {{{install_moved()}}}.

 Maybe the flags file should also be created from the
 {{{check_processor_flags()}}} function. But then, this only works if sage
 is run at least once after an upgrade.

 Otherwise, doing {{{sage -upgrade}}} followed by {{{sage -bdist}}} ends up
 with a sage binary with no {{{sage-flags.txt}}}, defeating the purpose of
 the flags file.
