I think what Chris wrote is not quite the full story. I am currently using a SUP1A and MSFC1 with a Flexwan card. We are also using single-router-mode, which is the Cisco recommended way of implementing redundancy in the Cat6509. With SRM, you can configure everything you need on the DR and,

It is obvious that with the explosion of the Internet that networks and networking, in general, are moving to a more unified approach. We are seeing legacy protocols that could not stand the test of time give way and die in the face of TCP/IP. All of this is good news for CCIE's among others.
