you should try to isolate the problem....

the easiest way is to use cvs......

so simply checkout a version from cvs with the release date of pre6, (
use the -D flag, like 'cvs checkout -D 2002-08-30 whatever')

compile/make/make-install

try... if it doesn't ( it should work ),
cvs update -D some-date-earlier, repeat-until-works

and now use 'cvs update -D some-date' to get a newer ( or an older )
version..... and try to find the day when it went wrong...

of course this means a lot of work + a lot of bandwidth ... 

and when you have the day, simply go back a day, and then update to the
next day, and watch cvs output which files were updated... and you have
the candidates for the error....
