[support] Views D5 - D6 Upgrade

[Shai Gluskin]

I've upgraded about 3 sites from D5 to D6. In each case I had to  
recreate the views. I didn't troubleshoot the issue because there were  
so few that it was no biggy to just re-do them. But I'm gearing up to  
upgrade a site that has a lot of views.

Is there a trick or tricks to coaxing the Views upgrade path from D5  
to D6 to actually work? What has your experience been?
