That's what I think that I'll have to do.  It's a pity, as I've
had good success doing the 5->6 transition in place on other
machines.  That's a much smaller step than the gargantuan 4->5
upgrade, which definitely needed a from-scratch switch (to get
UFS2 on the disks).

I suppose that I should report the raid breakage in a pr, so that
it becomes a known problem.

Yes, it's certainly been working well for me on 5-stable, so far.
