Run "find / -newer (some file created during your last upgrade) ... " and
back up the list with the utility of your choice.  Better yet make at
least two backups of the whole world.  (Since I'm going to repartition
my hard disk, I'll have to do it anyway.)

Did they fix 1) the 720k floppy bug?
	2) The software floating point crash the operating system when
		you just want to print a number bug?  aka floating point
		arrays and the type D trap.
	3) the obsolete lint files?
