Since I upgraded the driver, I haven't yet had any crash yet. So either I was just extremely lucky, or it also fixed problem for me.
It took me quite a while to link the crashes to the vireless driver (I initially thought it was problem with compiz).
I really think that if you can't provide the backports, then at least there should be some kind of notification for the first run, something like: "you seem to be running an Intel 4965 wireless card. There's a known bug that will make your system unstable. If you are experiencing this problems go to: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidReleaseNotes#System%20lock-ups%20with%20Intel%204965%20wireless"
