Ugh.  I go by the policy that we deliver no customer solutions based on 
unreleased or alpha/beta software, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.  
I do some patching for development to make some things easier to use, 
but they're nothing that I depend on for deployment.  Patching may not 
be hard, but configuration management can be.
