Time.  2.4 has thousands upon thousands hours of testing.  Lots of clued
people pouring over the source has previously failed to spot this
problem. 

Given the significant amount of non-legacy code in 2.6 (in other words
"not stared at as much"), that's so much more code that could yet
contain nasty problems/exploits.
