Heh. From an online chat with Bill Shatner hosted at startrek.com earlier this month:

Q: Will there be a director's cut for Star Trek V, like what's happening with the first film?
Mothman

WS: No, I don't think any of the other movies will be touched. But I'm going from house to house trying to get people to buy the DVD of Star Trek V and giving out individual explanations so please call.

I like Shatner a lot since he rediscovered his sense of humor. He has quite a few funny, sardonic moments in that chat. (Transcript, if you care, at http://www.startrek.com/news/transcripts/shatner_110801.html - I'm especially amused by his comments about Galaxy Quest. Very tongue-in-cheek. :)
