I found the changes that cause my netbsd-5 alpha to hard-hang on
boot after starting named (can't even break to DDB)! The changes
were pulled up on 09-Jun-2009 via ticket #798 from martin@netbsd.
http://releng.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/req-5.cgi?show=798
These changes are in NetBSD/alpha 5.0.2, but not in NetBSD/alpha 5.0
(which explains why I can boot 5.0, but not 5.0.2 or 5.1). It also
looks like that code may have got reworked in HEAD (which explains
why I can also boot HEAD kernel).

But now, what to do about it? Can we fix the netbsd-5 branch?
