I'm curious about the differences / benefits too.

As you may have noticed I backported the Fedora osm2pgsql package some
time ago to elgis-testing and have been using it without much problem
since then (I think that I noticed that a new one is available in
Fedora and was considering updating it).

Yes, you're right OSM software are often not versioned (e.g.
osm2pgsql, mkgmap, etc.)

But sometimes it is just a matter of asking, as we did with
mod_geocache where the developers were very reactive and introduced
versioning.
