Sharing /usr/ports between RELENG_6 and RELENG_5

Up until today I had two RELENG_5 machines sharing /usr/ports via NFS.
Each night one does a cvsup and a portsdb -uU.
I have just upgraded the NFS client to RELENG_6 (painless enough :).
However, now a couple of questions arise:
1) Can the RELENG_5 machine create INDEX-6 as well as INDEX-5?
2) At the moment INDEX.db is shared; I presume this is bad. Can I
persuade one machine to use INDEX-6.db everywhere?
Any pointers appreciated. Thanks a lot!!
