As far as I'm able to tell, 5.5 is the old version, with some new material in the appendices. My box even came with an old UK Corgi edition of City of Terror. If your old version 5.0 is still usable, you might want to hold out for the anniversary edition.

EDIT: From the Flying Buffalo website:

This version has 32 new pages including the complete Buffalo Castle solo adventure, plus Ken St Andre's "Chronology of Trollworld" plus new optional rules from Ken such as "Character Creation", "Half Breeds and Unusual Character Types", "Combat", "Spite Damage", "The Many-dice Problem", "Style of Play", and "The Money of Trollworld" AND "Skills in T&T" and "Pulling your Punches" by Michael Stackpole. It also includes the complete version 5.0 of the rules.
