What a wonderful word! Let's adopt it.

It might have been created by mistake, but "udpate" is just too good a word to 
be lost. It sounds like a fancy euphemism for "fat-head" or "bone-brain": "If 
only those udpates in Microsoft would just listen to reason, ..."

Even better, it could be a new technical term for an update that pretends to be 
an improvement, but is actually designed to subvert a standard or break 
competitors' software. By that definition, Office 2007 file formats would 
definitely qualify as udpates.
