Comment (by mcs):

 OK, it turns out that the bad code paths are not exercised when the
 platformVersion in the update manifest is >= the current platform version.
 In our testing, we used an old static update manifest that listed
 platformVersion as 24.7 instead of 24.8 or higher, and so we encountered
 this bug.

 So maybe the updater in 4.0a2 will work after all :).
 Regardless, a fix is coming soon.
