I take that back. While the status is much better, there appears
to still be a big memory leak as of yesterday.

I booted NetBSD 9.99.51 : Sun Mar 22 22:42:31 and did a distribution
build of -current. 4G of phymem, started the build with over 3.5G
available, the build did finish without crashing but only about 6M
of phymem is left available.

 r b      avm    fre  flt  re  pi   po   fr   sr w0 w1   in   sy  cs us sy id

The box is barely usable running X and takes about 6 seconds to
just switch focus to another window and about 15 seconds to launch
another xterm. kmem-00192 still looks suspicious.
