that tends to be my pov as well.  if you want to do tip development, you 
better have tip tools.  otherwise you can use a release (which presumably was 
generated with tip tools).  it gets to be a real pita when you're forced to 
make sure the development environment works even with older crappy versions 
with known bugs.
