Not specific to NetBSD. Just some platforms are not tested on commits and 
others have to go back and re-add removed support. (I submitted bug 
reports when I notice, but it seems like they are ignored.) For example 
with the "input-hotplug" addition/changes, it took a week for parts of it 
to be fixed on FreeBSD and six months for OpenBSD.

Now looking through git commit logs, I see now at least three NetBSD 
developers. So that is good. (There is also at least one OpenBSD and one 
FreeBSD developer also.)
