Yes, nmap works on the mac68k machine.

The problem I'm seeing first started happening on a 256 meg Amiga, but the 
same exact version of netbsd-5 didn't show the problem on a 128 meg Amiga, 
which was why I was wondering if some problem with the pmap was showing 
itself.

Hmmm...

Definitely. Thanks.
