The CRS-1 isn't *that* new any more.

In this case it weren't about switches, but a plain and dirty bug. It
just didn't work with quotes.

We did an upgrade from 3.5 to 3.6 on our CRS-1's last winter (northern
hemisphere). At that time Cisco Advanced Services didn't recommend
using any newer than 3.6. Neither 3.8 nor 3.9 didn't add any "must
have" features, and 3.6 had significantly more exposures in the wild
(read: used in production).

It became a lot better when Cisco pulled the plug on ASR14k, and
instead ships the LC's to the CRS.
