I just ran into the same problem,  upgrading a 6.1 box that was last
upgraded a few weeks ago.  

I hadn't posted because I was hoping to test another box tomorrow to see
if it was just that one machine, nor had I had time to do any serious
troubleshooting.

Not that this helps, but at least you know you're not alone, and the
problem isn't necessarily limited to a 5.x-6.x upgrade.

I don't think we've missed anything in UPDATING (but I've been wrong
about that before.)  :)
