I had a minimal (and I mean minimal) goodie that did that but it became a
bit problematic (see below) so I dumped it.  I keep the scripts in a file
now so it's just as easy :-)

The problem with using SessionManager>>productVersion is that it answers 5.1
but the current crash dump implementation still looks for a key at 5.0.  I
decided it wasn't worth the trouble of fiddling  about to check/create the
extra registry entry (it would hve doubled the size of the goodie package
:-) ) so I dropped it.

FWIW I very rarely, if ever, need to turn off the crash dump anyway and IIRC
it would normally be turned on by default.  It's only the problem with the
old registry entry that is causing  problems at the moment.

Roll on D6
