...not really :-)  Well, there was one that had DMA, I think (IIvx?),
and the Quadras have an NCR53c9x, but I don't think all of them have

...could be just differences in defaults... or, hm, doens't amd actaully
invoke the "mount_nfs" command?  Anyhow, just configure it to use a privvied
port... that is the default in more recent versions of NetBSD-current...
