Is it good practice not to release, when the last version has even more known bugs? It's a trade-off and those are hard to get objectively correct.
Personally, I still like the idea of a bugfix-only patch against 2.4.current [1], but in it's current state it just isn't taken serious by 90% of kernel.org kernel users.
