I have the patches for 6.x and as yet the disk i'm trying it on is 
happy. i'm using to store a periodic backup of a 9 gig file system 
(approx 300k files) and havent had any issues yet.
If its something your keen to try then the link to the patches for 
6-stable are below (search the geom mailing list for 6.0/6.1 patches)
