dont upgrade to 6.04f its buggy...wait for 6.1.0

beyond compare will compare files and tell you what is different between them, you would still have to sort through which changes were due to hacks and which due to upgrades though i think. not sure maybe it can show you new code present in the new files and not present in the old files...
