No good reason, just hadn't run into any reasons to update; switching
kernels is nonzero cost since the machine in question runs some out of
tree modules ergo updating is slightly more involved than "make && make
install". Above and beyond the costs of rebooting and losing state.

Actual bug is obviously a good reason to update though.
