You have only 7 hacks and afraid to upgrade? come on now
Here is a general tip: Always have a (or a few) mirror of your site in your local computer. Nakkid has a instruction regarding the issue in Hints board. Install PHP, MYSQL and Apache to your computer and copy all directory tree of your site to your computer together with MYSQL database.
Now you can test everything there and make sure it will be ok. This applies to installing new hacks, trying code changes, upgrading, reapplying hacks, anything you can think of. If you dont encounter any problems, you can do it in your real board..
By the way you may like to give a shot for the fix, but it may not work (it didnt work here).
