The modules are not many:

PayPal Payments Pro
PayPal Express Checkout
FREE SHIPPING!
Zone Rates

Thing is, I'm just not really liking the thought of removing them from my live site. Although, I certainly can buck up and do it if the remove and install cannot be done on the test site AFTER the upgrade.
In the case of those modules, and going from v151 to 155a, you can skip the step of removing/reinstalling those modules. The only module in that list that adds/changes configuration settings is the EC module, but it's also smart enough to add the new stuff without requiring a reinstall. So, no special treatment required.
