You do realize Time Machine is supposed to be 100% automatic, right? With no user intervention required?

First, you should know that that is very probably completely untrue. All repairing permissions does is exactly what it says -- repairs permissions. It doesn't replace any files, which is the only way it could feasibly undo an update. But in the 0.00001% chance that it does do something like that, you'll be able to restore the updates simply by running Software Update again like usual.
