You should at least upgrade to 7.2.4 as there are important bug fixes.
You won't have to do an initdb to do that upgrade.

You might want to upgrade to 7.3.2 as there are some nice new features,
but you will have to be more careful about the upgrade process to make
sure some of the changes don't cause problems.
