People using any CVS version after 0.6.1b should be fine with just 
gnunet-check -u.  The reason why pre-0.6.1b does not work is because the code 
that fixed the bloomfilter for pre 0.6.1b versions was removed since the 
update code would have gotten quite messy (and at this point I prefer to 
focus on improving functionality than preserving backwards-compatibility at 
all costs).
