Latest stable snapshot?

Hi all,
We manage several systems and use hobbit for monitoring all of them. I
was hoping someone might be able to tell me what is the current
recommended version to be running? 4.2.0 is getting very old and does
not include a large number of features we like. One of our systems was
updated to a snapshot at some point, which is generally working okay but
still has some problems (history viewer crashes occasionally, but can
always be resolved by simply refreshing the page). I'd now like to find
a stable 4.3 release that we can deploy instead of that.
From what I've gathered the snapshots are not generated anymore. The
SVN seems to be generally very unstable from what I've seen (I've tested
two checkouts in the last few days and both have kind-of worked but had
more severe crashing issues with the viewers than the current snapshot).
I'm also a bit confused by the fact that the SVN does not seem to match
the snapshots. One of our systems (which is working very well) has a
snapshot which identifies itself as 4.3.0-0.20080327. The source for
that snapshot is lost at our end. Looking through the SVN the versions
which have that string in include/version.h are versions 5614 through
5626. None of these revisions compile as the file hobbitd/client/hmdc.c
does not exist but is referenced in the build! Was there an out-of-tree
patch made for the snapshot release?
Anyway, any pointers or advice from others running 4.3 snapshots would
be greatly appreciated. :)
Kind regards,
