If openmodelica-devel was rebuilt by rev-upgrade, it was because it was
affected by a link error. As such it would have been rebuilt
unconditionally, and by necessity to the latest version. I can't speak to
applicability of -u to rev-upgrade.

In cases like this you might want to disable the automatic rev-upgrade.
That said, the fact that it was rebuilt does mean that the old version *was
broken* by some other upgrade. You may need to block upgrades of
dependencies in order to keep the older version functional.
