Yes, we did, on the 3rd. No major problems encountered at the time, most components were fine with just an upgrade of the rpm, but the SRM need the install script run to get it working. Since then we've had a couple of incidents of things stopping working - SRMs getting overloaded and GPlazma fell over but its difficult to say whether that's due to the update or just load due to Castor migration activites.
We did have one minor issue that restores from tape weren't working as an extra parameter had been added to the hsm restore command and our backend script didn't cope with it, but that was easily worked around.
Another issue was the Space Management needed to be turned on for both SRM dcache.gridpp and dcache-tape.gridpp and the link authorization file needed to be on both. I'd hoped to get away with just having it on one.
Pools were updated to use the new db backend, which went fine, though made them slower to startup the first time.
Oh, and the admin interface has command history now, which is great.
