I prefer the version which works for me, the version I have tested thouroughly
and the version which is maintained, tested and packaged from my vendor. In
this case, I can always apply security fixes, even if I don't have so much
time for that.

I admit that it is quite "cool" to have always the latest and greatest
version, but in a production environment, I prefer to stick with the shipped
versions. It's more stable and less work.
