given how much you gain by using fossil+venti over kfs one or two stability
hiccups are not a showstopper -- fossil handles restarting rather well. for
the rare cases when it doesn't venti saves the day. venti is stable.

besides, our whining has gotten most of the bugs fixed. recently reported
problems come from misconfiguration and unfamiliarity with the different
options rather than from bugs within fossil.
