I've been wondering about this, as I have seen it go by a few times along
with almost-flames of all the people sure to go slap this on a server...

-STABLE is supposed to be safe to put on a server. If 4.x is .not. yet
safe... Why is it in -STABLE? This kinda bugs me as it fairly well defeats
the point of having a -STABLE if it isn't, in fact, stable.
