Unless you have to, why would you want to go with a prerelease kernel?
If you have to, does it matter what problems they have?

To be specific, 2.4.20-pre seem very stable (judging only by trafic on
lkml, very little actual usage), 2.4.20-pre-ac have experimental IDE
work in them, not what I'd consider production material in any way
shape or form. Why don't you use the vendor's kernels? For production
use, that's definitely the safest bet.
