 I tried again a few days ago with the latest -current as of then.  There
 was no observable change, except that I think the hack to compensate
 for the almost-black-on-black framebuffer console didn't make weird
 colors on my A31p (which isn't affected by a-b-o-b-f-c to begin with).
 I didn't test further than X w/acceleration enabled (which hung as
 before), but at least the framebuffer console text wasn't rainbow-colored.
 
 I'm travelling right now, but have a -current tree with me.  When I
 reach my destination, I'll update, build and test again (-current kernel
 on netbsd-7 userland).
