Sorry if it came across that way, it was certainly not meant to be the
message. We just have been severely burned several times by being too
liberal with changes to stable releases.  All the changes in that
Debian package were never tested (with feedback) on a karmic system,
so we better apply changes individually.

If there are more fixes to apply in stables (like the crash you
mentioned), which have a confirmed patch and no unrelated changes,
these are fine for SRU as well, of course.
