Having *all* packages from 5 on a 6 system should work. But if you
rebuild some, they will link with some libs from 6 and then link with
pkgsrc-built libs that link with libs from 5 and you will get a mess.
So either don't rebuild anything, or rebuild everyting.  Of course you
need to maintain things, so the only reasonable choice is to rebuild
everything.  But you don't have to do it right away.
