Security implication of using force-reload instead of restart ?



Hi

I've just noticed that on libapache2-mod-php5 package upgrade, apache 
server was not restartted (but only HUPed because of force-reload called 
from libapache2-mod-php5 postinst)

Doesn't this mean that running apache has still old version of php module 
loaded, so it still is vulnerable to issues fixed in php update?

Is this a severity serious bug?
Perhaps same situation exists with other package combinations as well?
