Well, are those new issues that don't exist in 2.4.44, or simply existing
bugs already in the wild that haven't been fixed? If the former, then
certainly you don't want to release fresh bugs 8-/, but if the latter, it
seems to me that pushing a release that improves the state of production by
fixing some known bugs, even if other existing known bugs still remain to be
quashed, is preferable than leaving a larger number of known bugs at large
on production systems :(.  It seems the circular replication bug is
particularly bad, I'm surprised more people aren't having issues with it.

Hmm, I haven't run into that one yet myself, but thanks for the pointer.
