OK, there was a line for emacs. I removed it.
Now there is no "current" revision level shown; however, Setup still
proposes updating the package. It is also shown, correctly, on the "not
installed" panel. This occurs both for "latest" and "test" selections.
While I was there, I added lines for gcc-core and gcc-testsuite so they
no longer show as "not installed."
