Oh, I'm sorry; I didn't mean to imply that.  In my experience,
it's also been stable when I've been doing builds.

Well, I've not updated since Dec 8 2003, so I'm not quite on the
bleeding edge right now.  Furthermore, most of my build runs have
been done "-j 1", so for the build itself the execution of the
individual steps has been serialized.

I'm not doing NFS on my cs20, so I can't tell.

I tried running code from netbsd-1-6 initially on my cs20, but
switched to -current after a few crashes/hangs, and when a few
port-specific MP fixes were committed to the trunk (and not
pulled up), if I recall correctly.  It's been a while.  In short,
I would recommend you re-try with more -current bits.
