If you are referring to the 5.1 beta build, or the 4.5 asynchronous 
update, the change to fence_ilo is a minor fix to support ilo2...if you 
are running ilo currently with no problems, it is very highly extremely 
unlikely ;), that you will encounter a problem. Still, as the man says, 
you should test to be certain...as failed fencing when you need it is a 
VERY bad thing.

Here is what changed, btw...
