Looks like if I'd been reading more deeply instead of just skimming the surface of the PR site then I'd have noticed the 0.509beta patch log for the GloryHoundz server.

http://realitymod.com/forum/t16295-pr-v0509-open-beta-feedbackspan.html

Not reposting the whole thing here but the bits that struck me are:

  • set rally points to be destroyable by about 40 to 50 rounds of small arms fire
  • corrected error with penetration settings for weapons. they should penetrate fences and such now.
  • Fixed team-locking issues on Land Rover, Land Rover Support, BMP3, Z8 which should eliminate 90% of server crashes:
  • Added 10s timer that will kill a player that stays in a vehicle position with the wrong kit, or not on the same squad as the player that "owns" the vehicle.
  • Significant re-factoring of code to improve performance in all modules; This should greatly reduce server side lag and CPU utilisation on servers.
  • no time limit on requesting officer kit when and officer dies and respawns
  • Heavy AT and AA kits can no longer be requested fro Rally Points (they can still be requested from APCs, Supply Crates and Main Bases)
  • You can only make a kit request from your own squad's Rally Point
  • Fixed AAS flag cap logic to only allow to capture/neutralize when the attacker have 200% of the defenders.
  • Added defend messages on AAS2. If you have xcaptured a CP that is part of a group, you will get messages to defend those CPs until the entire group is captured.

And lots more...

This server side only update resolves all known server crash causes, greatly improves lag problems, and also addresses some important game play dynamics issues. All server administers should uninstall there current server version of PR v0.5 and then install the PR v0.509 Server Update. If your server participated in the Open Beta, you need to download the latest version linked below as there were some minor changes.

Players DO NOT need to download anything as this is a SERVER ONLY update.
