[Bioc-devel] upgrading

So I have an R-devel where I have a previous (pre-bioc-3.2) installed
version of BiocInstaller.

1) I re-compile R-devel today.
2) I run
  source("http://www.bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
which gives me BiocInstaller 1.20.0.  However, the current one for
Bioc-devel is 1.21.1.

When I try to push to a higher level version, by doing
  library(BiocInstaller)
  useDevel(TRUE)
I get

> useDevel(TRUE)
Error: 'devel' version requires a more recent R

If I now try to upgrade I get
> biocLite("BiocUpgrade")
Error: Bioconductor version 3.2 cannot be upgraded with R version 3.3.0

This all looks problematic.  How to I upgrade to Bioc-devel using R-devel?
Btw. there are no instructions anymore at
  https://www.bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/useDevel/

Best,
Kasper
