I think we should wait until we can fix the remaining problems.

I don't think you've made any trouble.  On the contrary, I very much
appreciate the updates!

For what it's worth, I see no problem with doing several updates on a
branch and taking a few weeks to fix the resulting problems.  This is
very similar to what often happens on 'core-updates'.  Given the
limitations of our build farm, I see no better way to accomplish this
task.  Doing a full rebuild after each update would take far too long.
