It used to be the case that the built binary was installed under 2 different names: `emacs' and `emacs-${version}.buildnumber', which were both hard links to the same file. Deleting `emacs' would then leave the other one around, and when invoked, it would want the DOC file with the corresponding suffix. Is this no longer the case? That is, does installing a new version completely erases the old one?
