In general, downgrades across major releases are not really supported.
I am not sure if building an 6.X kernel and userland on 7.0-CURRENT
and using installkernel/installworld will DTRT.
You can keep your 7.0-CURRENT installation though. Rebuilding and
installing a new crunchgen binary should be as easy as:
# /usr/src/usr.sbin/crunch
# make cleandir && make cleandir
# make all install
# make cleandir && make cleandir
Then you can go ahead and use the normal buildworld/buildkernel
procedure to upgrade to a fairly recent 7.0-CURRENT/HEAD build.
