After I installed 6.0.5 on top of an existing 6.0.4 system file, the
Mac crashed solid (ID=12) immediately after booting.  I worked around
this by moving the new (crashing) System file to another directory
and installing 6.0.5 on a "fresh" system.  This seems to work ok.

Oh, yes, when I tried copying the huge collection of screen fonts
(souvenier of MacInTax), Font/DA mover died with error 4,-1.  Copying
fonts one-by-one worked.

This is by way of warning: don't forget to backup your system before
upgrading.
