lseek is prototyped in unistd.h if programs break rules.. well..

Its really just not that important.  Is your personal system tracking
current?  Whats important is that NetBSD is *visibally* faster than
it used to be.  040's don't flush caches ever (excepting dma selective 
cache pushes, and shared libs), pmaps flush the ATC much more selectively 
now, users have 15/13 partitions they can use.  CD, tape and scsi direct 
support are simple and straightforward, et al.
