does freesurfer v5 have multiple fsaverage subjects with
varying number of vertices?

1. in freesurfer v5, there are now multiple fsaverage subjects with
varying number of vertices. fsaverage6 has about 40,000 vertices per
hemi, so you can just include the flag:
--target fsaverage6
after the -qcache flag, and it will use that as the target instead of
fsaverage (producing files like 'rh.thickness.fsaverage6.mgh', which
will have 40K thickness samples).
