[support] d6 conversion problem

[Marty Landman]

Well I cleared up the blank screen by running update.php, but after 
getting into the D5 -> D6 conversion a bit realized that with several 
content types and views and thousands of nodes this was a much bigger 
job than I'd bid for so spoke to the client and we're settling on an 
update to the latest D5 version instead... for the time being.
