Hmm, okay, it also happens on my NWS-1460.

It looks newer secondary boot can't load gzipped kernel
even from ffs on sd0 (gcc4 problem?). I'll take a look later.

For workaround, you can replace boot in 4.0 boot.fs with 3.1.1's one:

% dd if=4.0/boot.fs bs=512 skip=16 | tar xf - netbsd
% dd if=3.1.1/boot.fs bs=512 skip=16 | tar xf - boot
% cp 4.0/boot.fs boot-fixed.fs
% tar cf - boot netbsd | dd of=boot-fixed.fs seek=16 bs=512
