Funny given that is pretty much the "Official" method for getting an
install of unstable, given the installer often is too out of date to
handle unstable directly.
I have never had an issue dist upgrading to unstable from stable.
Now if you happen to hit in the middle of a big transition, then things
may break, but that is true if you are already running unstable and try
to dist upgrade in that case.
