Most likely.  An annoying side effect of the passage of time is that things tend 
to "age".  You should see what it does to humans.  Not really pretty.

On the plus side, newer CDs will be forth coming soon, possibly another week or 
two, and they'll include 2.6.17.10 (maybe higher, depends on how many more 
secbumps it gets)
