We most certainly do support upgrades from 6.06 LTS directly to 8.04 LTS.
If there are packages that are causing upgrade failures when upgrading
dapper->hardy, those should be considered candidates for SRU fixes.

In fact, going directly from dapper to hardy is the *only* supported upgrade
path at this point, because edgy has already been end-of-lifed so dapper ->
edgy is not supported.
