For me, the security fixes are the big deal about staying as current as possible. For some reason, Andy's answer triggered the thought that you (Joris) might have a specific reason for wanting to take a minor step up instead of the larger one now available. If you do have a specific need for taking that lesser step up, maybe others can help you if you describe exactly what you are looking for in 7.8 versus 7.9.... Just thinking out loud...
