Editing DLL hell (section)

===Lack of serviceability===
In direct conflict with the DLL stomping problem: If updates to a DLL do not affect all applications that use it, then it becomes ''much'' harder to "service" the DLL – that is, to eliminate problems that exist in the current versions of the DLL. (Security fixes are a particularly compelling and painful case.) Instead of fixing just the latest version of the DLL, the implementor must ideally make their fixes and test them for compatibility on every released version of the DLL.
