I have personally not experienced serious trouble when I upgraded VServer versions. At some point a 'real' lo-Interface appeared breaking some workarounds and recently people seem to have trouble with outdated tools. As I prefer current tools I rarely run into them. However, we use VServers as service-separation to facilitate administration. It is easier to maintain a VServer for each MySQL4, MySQL5, Apache+php, postgres, DNS, DHCP, log, smaba, mail than run all in the same environment with all the possible version conflicts. I don't run e.g. 100 web instances that are potentially hostile towards each other or similar things. As long as each VServer sees only it's own assigned IPs and processes I am perfectly happy.
