I just got Deus Vult. Is it worth using the 2.1 betapatch? Does it solve more issues than it breaks? I'm asking since my current pan-Celtic game (starting as the Duke of Leinster) has been ruined due to crashes and corrupt autosaves.

Yes it is, although if you're waiting for them to finish it, you should know its been a beta patch for almost two years.
In my experience it works fine. Didn't play the unpatched version enough to judge how much of an improvement it is, but it certainly doesn't seem to be messed up or something.
You pretty much need the 2.1 beta patch: 2.0 is very unstable and has some really unfortunate bugs that kill fun gameplay.
Any 2.0 game ends up with ALL counts and dukes all over the map pledging to some king within a few months -- Apulia becomes part of England, Byzantium picks up all of Russia, and everything from Jerusalem to Burgos is one big effing Caliphate.

Betapatch fixes all major issues of the DV, so like others I would recommend you get it ASAP.
