I just upgraded to the 7-24 source tar-balls.

Kudos to all of the NetBSD team.  This is truely the nicest
i386 UNIX I have run in the past 8 years. (and I've tried em all)

One problem I noticed....

I started an X11R6 compile before hitting the sack last night.
It errored out with "cannot fork" errors before even finishing
the library compiles. This would probably make the ETD (estimated
time of death) right around the time that news expires were running.

Are there some system resource limits that are a little bit low?
