PRF2 vs. 128bit

Can any one tell me the relative advantages and disadvantages to
installing the 128-bit patch verses the PRF2 solution?  There seems to
be a lot of talk on the list about problems regarding the 128-bit
solution.

We are thinking about seperating out our flags into several long
variables and using a PRF2 type solution.  But we wanted to make sure
that we did or did not want to do the 128.

Thanks.
