are you kidding me?  for years and years all I've heard from *nix
people is how secure the OS is and that there aren't as many
patches needed for it and if a vuln is found a patch is released
right away....

I don't see why Debian should subject their users to having to
download multiple kernels when a couple of patches can be applied to
one updated release.

Aside from that, have you looked at the actual bugs? First, they are
very clearly contained, and second, they don't exactly affect the
majority, do they?
