Not for me:

  CBOS (tm) 678 Software (C678-I-M), Version v2.4.1 - Release Software

It was up to about every 15 minutes before moving the web port.

Also, there was someone on slashdot with 2.4.2 that was still getting the
crashes.  I think they are not releasing it because it doesn't fix
the problems for everyone.
