When you upgrade rails how does that affect your currently built apps?  Is there an upgrade process for them?

Yeah, fun stuff.  I've spit out two Typo releases in the last 24 hours
thanks to this mess.

FWIW, you can work around the bug by removing the default
:controller/:action/:id route from your routes.rb.  See
http://bofh.org.uk/articles/2006/08/10/working-round-the-rails-showstopper,
or just upgrade to Rails 1.1.6.
