If you're just building boo on the side, you won't see the issues. Those tend to happen during bulk-build, the problem is a race condition that depends *a lot* on other things happening at the same time. That said, it might be solved with the mono fix, or not. I will do a few bulks with boo active. In general, testing that locally on a box that is doing nothing besides building boo will be totally non-conclusive.
