IMHO it's pretty stable in 6.0. I've been running gvinum RAID-5 for a
while now; other than one strange panic (something to do with out of
memory situations, see kern/89660) I haven't had a hitch yet. That
said, I haven't needed to replace a disk yet either (I've demoed this
but it was not yet needed in production use).
In short, don't write gvinum off just yet. Documentation is around the
corner (as a result of a SoC project).
