Let's hope :)
Did you finish building? I see
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/sparc64/10.0/All/

is decently populated.

I just finished upgrading my Netra T1 NetBSD 10 and it boots. How stable 
it will be, time will tell!

Need help to build something? Netras are slower but catch less Fire :)
I suppose I cannot contribute however... classic issue.

when building pkgsrc are you able to cvs pull a specific 
release/version? I'd like to build something "compatible".  is pkgsrc 
CVS tagged, branched or so? Tell me yours, please.
