I believe the only other option would be more of a manual process of copying the contents from, (bigip.conf, bipip_base.conf, etc) from the 6550 UCS file and use the following command on the 4000 box:

load sys config merge from-terminal

You can start with small parts of the config when you get to the ASM sections. Hopefully you will be able to figure out what portion of the ASM config is causing the error. If it's not an extremely important item, you can remove it from the 6500 and take another UCS. Or at least you will know exactly what part is failing and you can go to F5 showing the exact config that is not carrying over and see if they have a workaround.
