The only 7.1->7.3 gotchas I've noticed:
After upgrading glibc (which I did before anything else), I had to restart SSH the next morning because initgroups() had stopped working.
After upgrading identd, PostgreSQL ident authentication stopped working because the default was changed to encrypt the account name. I reversed the change and all was well. (Of course it took me several hours of downtime to figure out what the problem was because I had upgraded a number of packages at once.)
After upgrading lilo, remember to re-run it! Make sure you have an up-to-date boot floppy just in case. I guess I could have used the rescue CD if the box in question had had a more recent CD-ROM drive. Instead I had to play "guess which partition is /" (no, I didn't have that written down anywhere).
