In your scenario, Bob is an Admin.  If Bob were *my* admin and had not
taken the time to read the ChangeLog for the package and not made
changes on the test network before making them to the production
network, Bob would be looking for a new job after that coffee.  Also, if
Bob were not smart enough to not stay with the stable portion of Gentoo,
which is designed to not have feature loss and other such problems, but
was instead using the "testing" branch on production servers, then Bob
would be looking for a new job and I would be looking for a smarter
administrator.

The whole point is that if you are blindly upgrading *anything* that you
rely on for day-to-day work, that really there is only one person to
blame, and that is yourself.
