Yes, probably.

No, I think he did an upgrade from 6.1_STABLE to a current 7 and
noticed the problem after that.

[quote from his e-mail to port-i386]
I was in the process of upgrading an old i486-system to a current
NetBSD/i386 (sources from about January 12th [2015]), when bad things
started to happen.

I tested NetBSD 6.1.5 on my affected 486 and it worked fine without patch.
Nevertheless, if you can find this or a similar problem in netbsd-6,
which is not occuring for some reason then, I do not object to fixing
it of course. :)
