I'd rather suggest that they consider installing some patches for 4.1.3. Our general impression here is that 4.1.3 (suitably patched) is still much more stable than 2.3 (suitably patched). Uptime of 59 days is *not* particularly impressive - we have many 4.1.3 systems which have been up much longer than that.
