I know that this was frequently a problem with particular extensions - are you running any? The beauty of extensions is that they provide functionality without the maintainer having to write/review everything. The drawback is that you get little/no QA and QA will more frequently catch problems with upgrades that might not get caught by the old "release and pray" system that some extension developers seem to follow.
