Here's my work-around solution for this.

1.) Install IEToggle (attached)
2.) Launch it, you may get an error about not finding Internet Explorer. Ignore it, click ok
3.) Select PIE, click OK
4.) In Internet Explorer (I believe it launches automatically) go to http://m.google.com/maps/download?dc=gorganic
5.) in a few seconds a download window will pop up, leave "Open file after download" checked, and click "Yes"
6.) run through the install routine after the download and your google maps will be updated.

You can chose whether to leave IE in PIE mode (works like a mobile browser) or reset it to IE6 mode (works more like a desktop browser). If you leave it in PIE mode, and set it as the default browser then google maps automatic update *should* work straight from the app.

Also, for those too lazy to follow all the steps above, I attached the cab for google maps that I just downloaded using the above steps. This will upgrade you to the latest version.
