[tor-relays] Lots of tor relays send out sequential IP IDs; please fix that!

I don't understand but I really want secure relays.
All my relays are on VPSs running Debian 6/7 64 and I only know enough Linux to get Tor going.
Is being updated enough?
If not would you explain how to remedy the problem you've outlined as it seems quite serious?
