Upgrading to the newer one may result in unexpected results. If you can help us out by testing the newer version, then that might help us determine that it is safe to make that the new default. The compiler should pick up both SWCs and use the time stamps in the catalog.xml in the SWC and choose the newer one. There is a chance that an old version was re-compiled more recently than a new version in order to slipstream some bug fix or if you built it yourself from sources. But usually it works as expected. -Alex
