According to someting from a senior rh engineer I read when 9 first came 
out, a point release means binary compatability has been retained.  If 
binary compatability has been broken, it means a new major version no. 
 According to that, a point release should be a mostly hassle free 
update without breaking any apps... mostly... maybe?...
