No, the error is very hard to see. These lines incorrectly state that the
poffd deamon only applies to NetBSD/x86k. The NetBSD port that poffd is
actually a part of is NetBSD/x68k. See? The '8' and the '6' are in the wrong
order. This is slightly confusing, given that there exists a very common
architecture from Intel that many people run: the x86. :)

I think it is now, as I got an email from someone saying that it was fixed.

I would imagine that any typo should be corrected. I did file this bug as
low priority, at the lowest level of importance that the NetBSD bug system
allowed. In my defence, someone could waste some time trying to figure out
why his Intel system does not have the poffd daemon installed anywhere, and
maybe trying to find and compile it.
