Belated 450d firmware update

With an hour or two to spare (now rapidly disappearing) I've decided to update some of my Canon software. I have 1.0.9 as originally supplied.

The Canon UK download site does not offer any firmware updates, but I have located 1.1.0 on the Japan site, the US site has 1.1.1 for the "Rebel".

Whilst I understand that the primary upgrade if for the 270EX flash which I don't have it is common for there to be other fixes.

Canon aren't doing themselves any favours with the above discrepancies.

I'm minded to install the e5kr4110.fir update. I assume that it not in anyway country or language specific but wonder:

1) why isn't it shown on the UK support site

2) is there a site that shows all the available firmware? I would like to be able to backtrack if something goes amiss
