And the answer to this is, it's NOT stable compared to 2.4.2 and 2.4.3.

It's a snapshot of a point in time when the patch was made.

In fact, it's possible (although unlikely) that it won't even compile.

Unless you're planning on tracking CVS and the mailing list to stay up
to date, you should use either the 2.4.2 or 2.4.3 patch for now.
