More then 4 extruders- slicer software??

When wanting to slice for more then 4 heads, the duo has 5 extruders, what slicer will allow more then 4?
In Slic3r you can say you have 5, but only shows 4 to pick from when slicing. Cura only lets you select dual. Or am I just not configuring something correctly?

... I'm working with Marlin4Due and Pronterface - here I have to change the configuration, GUI and methodes to get more than 4 extruders, but it's not a problem either ... I only have to define the appropriate pins and 'expand' the if's, select cases and GUI-settings for the higher counts ...

Thanks Viktor.
The hardware and pronterface is not an issue. It is finding a slicing software that can slice with more then 4 extruders.
