I'd say go with 6.0-RELEASE - I just saw they tagged it few hours ago
in cvsup. there was an interview with Scott Long few weeks ago, he
recommended it over 5.* branch. just wait a couple of days for release
to be available on FTP.

Also, I've been using 6.0-RC for a while, including AMDx64 platform - no issues.
