I don't have an answer to your question, but I'd like to point out that
there are very few visible differences between 5.0 and 5.1, and probably
most subsequent 5.x releases. Except in some very rare and odd
circumstances, you'll be just fine running the latest 5.x. Just steer
clear of the current (read: possibly unstable) branch until you're
knowledgeable enough to handle a few difficult problems now and then.
