Have no experience with M5 and M6.

Exact same source tree ... makes me wonder if you could benefit from making a copy of the source tree, remove all eclipse files and folders, and make the project again.

Good call. As Jens mentioned too, it appears that M6 doesn't work with M5's metadata very well, even though it doesn't report any errors. Blowing away the old workspace and creating a new one in M6 made things a little better. Now M6 navigation feels only slightly worse than M5, rather than being totally non-functional.

Still, if anyone's thinking about upgrading to M6, I might suggest
holding off for now.

P.S. The triple-click to select a line is fantastic!!  I missed this
feature so much (thanks platform).  And I really, really like that the
Standard/Managed dialogs have been merged into one wizard.  That makes a
lot more sense.  M6 isn't without its benefits too.

Definitely major changes in M6. Just a reminder that these are really test builds are shouldn't be used in production environments. The good news is that the end of June is just around the corner...
