Yeah, I have been saying this for years now. Debian and Ubuntu type distros starts doing custom patches and cherry picks changes into 3 year old software, just to keep it chugging along. Sounds like insanity to me. Just upgrade so you are not 3-4 years behind, and by keeping the number of custom patching lower, have a simpler time fixing bugs.

If you are running a mission critical service, oh say for example wide-area emergency services dispatch, the downside is people might die and you will look like a dickhead for insisting on living on the bleeding edge.
