Perhaps I should explain myself more clearly.

The data and indexes are being rcp'd (nightly) from the production 
machine, which is running 4.5
I was testing on the test machine, which is running 5.0

Thus, I'm not really mixing 4.5 and 5.0.  The 4.5 box will never again 
see the data that has been modified on 5.0.

My original issue remains, however:

5.0 dxmaint does not successfully rebuild all automatic indexes which 
were built under 4.5

I suspect this could be an issue for people who are upgrading systems.
