Never in the past did one have to immediately reboot.

No. What I wrote was after the update I declined to reboot. Then every 10
minutes or so it nagged me reminding me I needed to boot to complete the
update. I knew that. Each time I declined. But about three hours after I
left the machine and went to bed it booted itself.
