2.6 has been stable for quite some time.

Spool won't have to be wiped. You might need to wipe swap.state and let it rebuild
the indexes the long way but I doubt it; I haven't done any 2.5 to 2.6 migrations
myself.

Compile with --enable-kqueue. FreeBSD-6 has a sane threading model which
will let you use aufs instead of diskd which will give you much better
stability (diskd is known to be unstable under heavy load) but you'll want
to run with the latest FreeBSD-6 codebase (just use -stable) and check
the GNATS database for the recent bug Anders Nordby found w/ kqueue and
AUFS threads.
