I have not encountered any bugs that have caused my vservers to crash, or
had a security exploit, or data corruption...
I was not aware their were any major bugs.

Grsec has prevented one of my vservers from beign cracked from a
vulnerablephpbb2 exploit, or having it escalated to a root exploit.

The problem I am encountering is the need to backport security patches for
arbitrary kernels.
For example the 2.4.23,2.4.25, and 2.4.27 kernels.
I prefer backporting security erratta if the systems are stable to
minimize change in the kernel.
Guess I will have to upgrade my kernels.
