I think it depends. If the only solution given by other lists is "update

Well sometimes there will be no choice. Eg: To get milter support in
postfix, I have to upgrade to postfix 2.3. There is no other solution
possible. So for Centos 4.x, you prefer to have that discussion here?
No. But we had that stuff rather regularly with samba - their first line
of support seems to be : "Upgrade your version to the most current one,
then ask again."
That's what I meant.
That is very common with applications. They don't back patch old versions, and
the problem you ask about might be already fixed. Just look at the dovecot
list. People still pop in and ask why 0.99 has this problem, because that is
what their distro came with, but they are currently at 1.0.5, and have 1.1 in
beta. Who has the time to backport fixes to old versions if you don't get paid
for it?
