RELENG_6 is pretty stable for me.  I see a few 
commits and bug fixes to the tree specifically 
for gmirror 
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/geom/mirror/). 
No idea if it will fix your problem or not.  It 
might be its a result of some other bug.  But I 
would try there unless someone has a better suggestion.
