Also they are incompatible between different versions. If you can't live without them use different slots for savestates (there are like 1-5 I believe).
Anyway by latest version are you talking about the latest official version or the latest build?

I have 0.9.6, windows, non-gold.

There should be an option to cycle through the different slots for savestates. That way, you can still do the really easy F2 to savestate, but even if there's a problem with it, you'll only go as far back as your last save state.

Obviously, you can do that manually now, but I tend to forget to switch slots.

If they're known to be unsafe, why isn't it mentioned to avoid using them anywhere on the official site?
