They have no desire, now, to start recompiling and upgrading: no matter how many assurances you want to give them, they simply will not do so without a few weeks of regression testing. And, frankly, I don't blame them one bit. They have a responsibility to their clients to keep things up and running, they want to be known as a robust software, and their QA head has some very stringent guidelines about what goes out the door.
