Thanks for not sparing the gory details (and Alice and James) - much
appreciated!

I normally test my updates on non-critical systems before deploying to
production.  However, in this instance, I had been away from the office and
wanted to quickly patch the openssl vulnerability before other non
-critical/security related.

In the end, I bit the bullet and just upgraded everything and no harm done.
