Some time ago, I installed many DJGPP 2.02 packages. I now wish to upgrade
my compilers and related packages, as follows:

from bnu281b.zip to bnu2951b.zip;
from djdev202.zip to djdev203.zip;
from gcc281b.zip to gcc2952b.zip;
from g770523b.zip to g772952b.zip.

Of the other DJGPP packages I currently have installed, the following
are less recent than the latest "*b.zip" versions on the nearest DJGPP
FTP mirror site. Might the above upgrades cause trouble for them?

bc103b.zip
bsh1147b.zip
bsn125b.zip
dif271b.zip
ed-02b.zip
find41b.zip
flx254b.zip
grep22b.zip
gro110b.zip
gwk303b.zip
gzp124b.zip
lss332b.zip
mak377b.zip
man12b.zip
pat25b.zip
shl112b.zip
txt122b.zip

My feeling is that, since these are not part of the C or FORTRAN
compilation system, they should continue to work correctly after upgrading
bnu, djdev, gcc and g77. However, perhaps there are some subtle
dependencies I do not know about. Any advice would be welcome.
