99.9% of ports seems to work ... I've hit a few that are marked as BROKEN, like postgis stuff, but nothing that I'd considered "mainstream" ...

But I dont know if they will alla ctually compile, and I dont wnat to
start doing the process only to find that I cant build one of them
possibly. Does anybody know if this is likely to work, or is it
simply unsupported ?

I;d love to upgrade the machine to 6.1 - but I have no physical access to
it, nor am I likely to get any for the forseeable future, and upgrading
across the 4/5 boundary isn't something I would be happy doing remotiley
in multi-user mode (if it's even possible!)
