I'll agree. You should read the changelog and see if you're using any of the buggy modules in the first place before blindly upgrading. It looks like a bulk of the changes are in Win32 anyway.
It sounds like you have a service pack mindset, just applying patches without checking what they do. If a system is working and the features you use are not affected by a bug fix, why upgrade? Be a lazy, happy and smart sysadmin instead of a frantic, overworked and dumb one.
