Note that Symlinks have always been disabled by default on new Magento installations admin YES/NO config values default to 'NO'. The update now explicitly disables symlinks in config.xml and as an extra precaution also removes it from the admin->developer section.
This will not affect your current symlink settings, if you manually enabled symlinks prior to 1.9.3.2 they will stay enabled, although you cannot see the setting anymore in admin.
Users using modman to manage Magento 1.x modules should ensure that they do not disable symlinks as this will disable the modman modules.
Here is the diff file for magento1933 and magento1932 to assist with identifying changes in the default theme which may affect your custom/extended themes.
