Hey Lewis,

I was going to choose 9.0, but I saw that mef@ was already producing
regular bulk builds on that for pkgsrc-current available here:

  https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/9.0_current/

so went with NetBSD-current instead, though it's quite unreliable so I
may revisit that choice if every bulk build requires manual
intervention and restarts.

Yeh I'll get around to this at some point.
