NO!
You _should_ run the experimental kernels, as much as possible. And you _should_ expect it to work correctly and consistently. The experimental doesn't mean "may break - don't test". It means "may break - complain to us if it does, but don't expect us to feel sorry for you".
So Simon is doing exactly the right thing.. Don't flame people for reporting bugs.
As to why Simon sees the problems, I don't know yet. Duh.
