That's the way sorcery behaves right now. GCC fails during "make install", not during compilation. And "prepare_install" must be called before "make install", which wipes the old GCC. The temporary solution is in the bug, Julian suggested it.

I've just fallen victim to bug #1469. On doing a gcc upgrade in which the
spell casting failed, I found that my gcc installation had been wiped. Can't
we change sorcery so that the old installation of a spell being upgraded is
not deleted until the compilation of the replacement has succeeded? This
would prevent this sort of thing happening again.

Cheers,
Gareth
