Thing is, as far as I can see, deploying this database update to a Windows machine will result promptly and unconditionally in a BSOD. That implies that this update was tried on exactly zero machines before it was shipped.

The bug can't have "slipped through internal testing"; it would have failed immediately on any machine it was loaded on.
