I am not experiencing it, in part because I am somewhat afraid of using the
latest version, knowing it could break at any time <g>.

When I used to do that regularly, one trick I had was to boot in single user
mode (when the Grub menu comes up, hit e to edit the command line and put a
" 1" at the end of the boot line.  Then you can run an apt-get update and
apt-get upgrade to get the fixes, which are usually out the next day.

Another option is to choose an older kernel from the Grub menu and see if
that still works.
