Please remember, that it's not done to change only the software (e.g.
mkgmap), but each rule file or alike in use.

I know all costs,

I have doubts about that.

And most of them use mapnik and/or osm2pgslso there's no change for them but to load a newer version of mapnik and
osm2pgsql.

That's only true for map developers that keep the default rendering rules of the software in use. Once a developer starts to tweak the rendering to his liking, he usually has to copy the rules file(s) and therefore won't directly benefit from upstream changes of the software.

BTW: Most mobile device software (Garmin, mobile phone, ...) don't use mapnik/osm2pgsql.
