Please explain what's missing in 6.4 with respect to 6.5...

I made twice a *full* diff of 6.4 and 6.5 (yeah, it takes days) and backported
whatever was appropriate leaving out a few new features. I am not aware
of 6.4 being out-of-date with respect to 6.5 but I wil be wrong.
With your help we could check if we forgot to update (or left out on purpose).

thanks
