I'm not even entertaining the idea of lab testing IOS-XR 6.x.x, however Cisco are telling us that some of the long running bugs we have had are finally fixed in XR 6. In particular a race condition between BGP and MPLS when a PE is an ASBR (such as running Inter-AS Option B) and a RR, amonsgt others, but that has been the worst I think, causing traffic to become black-holed until the processes are restarted.
