Thanks @ajb1978, I found that file on my system and saved it.  I'll wait a day or so to see if I can get an official answer to my original question.  If not, I'll try installing a new game and using that file--after I finish my current game.  I've got a promising Interloper game going right now.  If I don't die, I might be at it a while. 

If the answer to the title question is 'Yes', wonderful.  If not,  it looks like I, and others who are running Rugged Sentinel (1.37) and bought their game from GOG, are stuck at Rugged Sentinel forever.  GOG has patches from 1.33 to 1.37 and 1.47 (Vigilant Flame) to 1.48 (Steadfast Ranger), but no patches from 1.37 forward.  I wrote to Hinterland Support, but haven't heard back yet.  I do understand they are quite busy with the new update right now.  I did hear back from GOG support and their answer was a polite tough luck, you can always install Galaxy.  If they don't have a patch to download for 1.37 forward, would they have such a patch implemented in Galaxy?

The issue, of course, is the badges.  Although I didn't keep track, it must have taken me more than 200 hours of game play to earn the Fire Master badge.  Who would want to do that again?

Even at Rugged Sentinel, The Long Dark is a wonderful game, although I really would like to play the latest.

Well?  Did you load the game again?  What happened to the arrow then?
