In the last deployment I did involving MCT(it was a 2-level MCT config on the MLX platform as well as between MLX & CES platforms) we used 5.1.00b and it worked quite well. The technology has a little bit of a learning curve(at least it did for me), but once it's up it runs like a champ.

We just deployed our first pair of CES switches using MCT and they're running great so far. They're doing OSPF, VRRPE, etc - however no BGP. We'll be deploying a pair of core level MLX's using MCT (along with pairs of CES's also running MCT) sometime this month. Our testing has been quite positive with even some better than expected behaviour on a simulated portion of our network that will need to continue to run PVST. It is still a new technology on Brocade gear but so far it seems stable enough to take a chance and reap the benefits.
