The difference is that 1.5.0.5 fixed a dozen security flaws and many misc. bugs, where 1.5.0.6 fixed only the inability to play a certain type of video clips. The 2 releases are hardly comparable in their importance. If we're going to wait until a program the size of Firefox is bug-free it will be a very long wait.
