MPcore is (IIRC) an ARMv6K implementation.  NetBSD doesn't really
support ARMv6 yet (although I have run it on an ARM1136 it wasn't
particularly stable, since I didn't rework the code for the v6 cache
layout (VIPT)).

I think you'll need to address that before you can really get things
running on this board.
