My understanding is that the current tree breaks compat with string-based :build recipes. 4.0.4 will re-add support for that. The idea of upgrading the minor version number that frequently is to better cope with bug reports, asking users to M-x el-get-version would give us enough information to know where to look for the bug... or at least should help some.
