You might have better luck with 6.0-RELEASE or 5.4-STABLE, since a number of bugs have been fixed in 5.4-RELEASE..but without more details it's impossible to say whether that will help, or if you're encountering something genuinely new. > Can anyone help or offer assistance to help track > this down?
