That's a much more encouraging number. The last few releases' patch counts have been a little on the big side for my taste. I skipped .3 and .4.

Having said that, 5.12.5 running well here.

edit: not sure how this got duplicated. I only posted once.

Just rebooted into .6 here also - pretty small patch-set this time, so wasn't really expecting any issues.
