We are in the same boat as you, 1 'in production' RAQ4R. We have all
PKG's installed and installed the lastest 'Named' patch yesterday, then
did the sor-of-required reboot and have had no problems. The reboot did
take about 3 minutes longer than usual, but no problems here.

Just to note we have installed -
Ipchains
MRTG
Logcheck
Custom edits to some .conf files
Adje webmail
Interbase running
