In principle maplint is as current as osmarender since both are generated at the same time by the same clients. However, the map had to be re-rendered a while ago and the maplint layer was left out to speed up the rendering process. I would say, instead of showing debug information on the standard tile layer you should request to change the maplint rules to have maplint highlight the issues. Don't know whether the people working on maplint are reading this list. You might have better luck on -dev.
