Thanks Frederick. I'll file a PR, but what does PR stand for? Sorry, 
I'm new to netbsd. How do I file a PR?

It's definately reproducable anyway.

[Now another strange thing is happening - as rc.conf is unconfigured, 
it's booting up in single-user mode, but it just won't come up with 
the root filesystem read-write!!! I'm trying to use the install 
program to put in an edited version, what a mess... ]

Cheers

Jesse
