Shouldn't be a problem for the ones running 6.0 - the only disadvantage is
you won't get any of the Mandrake specific packages if you run just an
update.
As for 5.2, well... It should work partially, but since some important
stuff moved to different packages (xfs and such), you'll probably have to
do some stuff manually.
