Latest UPM on JIRA 5.0.7

Question

Despite claiming support for JIRA 4.3 up, the latest UPM will not install on 5.0.7 (old I know but there you go). I don't mind if it's truly unsupported, but the documentation should make that clear if so.

Error is:

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.CannotLoadBeanClassException: Error loading class [com.atlassian.upm.selfupdate.async.SimpleAsyncTaskManager] for bean with name 'simpleAsyncTaskManager' defined in URL [bundle://124.0:0/META-INF/spring/atlassian-plugins-components.xml]:

Which version of UPM are you running currently and are there any files in your jira-home/plugins/installed-plugins that resemble 'self-update'?  If it exists, remove it from the filesystem and restart JIRA.  If you have UPM 2.7.8 or 2.7.9 installed then remove that as well and install a newer version.

OK, managed to get it updated via manual intervention as per instructions. I can manage plugins nicely now, but the UPM self-update is broken:

Hrm -  seems to occur with an manual upload as well. Looks like I'll have to schedule an outage and hit the filesystem.
