NetBSD PR #57821 affects port-i386 as well



Just a FYI regarding an open PR on the amd64 port that appears to
affect i386 as well.

NetBSD PR #57821: On some machines, NetBSD/amd64 cannot get correct
century data http://gnats.netbsd.org/57821

I'm seeing pretty much the same behavior on an old 32 bit HP
SLimline; the pertinent dmesg output:

 [   5.5878455] WARNING: NVRAM century is 16 but RTC year is 2025

where "16" varies with each boot.  Booting with 'netbsd -2' (ACPI
disabled) fixes the issue but of course introduces other issues.

Haven't tried the /sys/arch/x86/isa/rtc.c patch yet but I suspect
it would work.  I didn't want to file a new PR and I couldn't see
a way to add feedback to the forementioned PR so thought I'd post
here where perhaps a developer could add a comment.
