Safety of Upgrading Unstable

[Mark]

I installed unstable about a month ago and have had nothing but good times. I've been following debian-devel and debian-user looking for problems people have had with upgrading unstable and haven't seen that many (a few regarding kde / libfam issues). But, I'm curious to know how safe/dangerous it is to just say 'apt-get upgrade' presently. I know there are a lot of changes with kde / gcc / libc, but will it leave me in a runnable state? I'm using gnome from garnome right now, so anything going on with gnome/kde doesn't conern me. However, when I use aptitude to show me what will be upgraded/removed/installed during the upgrade, it is removing some packages that I would think shouldn't be removed. I don't need to hear that I shouldn't be running unstable because it is 'unstable'. I've chosen to run it and enjoy living on the bleeding edge of debian, but this is going to be my first upgrade and don't know how much I should blindly trust these things. Should I upgrade now or wait for the transition to gcc3.2 to end?

--Mark.
