12/11/12 - I imagine a lot of the rare problems are easy fixes that may as well be sorted out when Bethesda is made aware of them.
12/04/12 - This says "Fixed crashes related to loading and saving games. My game crashes ("frozen"- to fix must turn console off and restart) in the mist of a save. One time it "crashed" during a fight. So perhaps the fix listed above is something else. It concerns me that so many of the things they fix are termed "rare." Wouldn't fixing "common" problems be more appreciated?
