Well, I can confirm half of it:  PP6 does include the fix for the
"DBUTIL erase problem" (I use quotes because it is really a
problem in the underlying file system;  not only DBUTIL but
any other system that tries to use this "feature" may stumble
in similar fashion).

I *think* you are right about that fix not getting rolled in to 6.0,
but I don't know what the 6.0 patch ID is....
