Of course, we have used SP4 and SP5 with our 2.0.4b system for a while
now with no problems (using the "unofficial" PDC code in 2.0.4b).  I think
problems start arising when you start having more "unusual" network
settings, conditions, and demands than the old plain Jane vanilla installation
like ours.

On another note, we also have installed SP1 and SP2 for Office 97, along with the
SP5 for NT4, and have had no problems that I am aware of.
