I was less than couple in my previous answer :-) I'll point out that unlike other router vendors, the source code and build instructions are available to everyone. One of the real benefits of open source means that bug fixes are available as soon as they're entered into the source code.
You also have access to package updates which include the most recent changes, including this bug fix; it's just not in a formal release. See http://www.vyatta.com/twiki/bin/view/Community/UnderstandingPackageArchives for details.
