At this time I'd say it's probably more dangerous to run 5-stable than
-current. ;)

If you follow this list, you know that a lot of stuff is just about to
hit -current that will make life "interesting" for a while. If I were
in your position, I would run 6.x on one MX, and HEAD from around now
on the other, and keep a scratch box around with similar (or better
yet, identical) hardware so that you can test upgrades to either version.
