@Brian Visel - The way the release upgrader works is that it downloads a tarball of ubuntu-release-upgrader for the release to which you are upgrading. Subsequently, the fix doesn't need to be in the release from which you are upgrading. Additionally, using "apt-get dist-upgrade" bypasses the ubuntu-release-upgrader process altogether and is not a recommended way to upgrade.
