Nope, not NetBSD-1.1, because there aren't any sparc binaries for X in there.
I have a feeling somebody might have overlooked their availability:

They aren't in /pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-1.1, either (that's the distribution).

I have the 1.0 binaries. My question is, are there a different set for 1.1?
If so, I would like to grab 'em, so I don't have to spend time cajoling
outdated ones to run on my 1.1 machine. I seem to remember there being 1.1
X binaries for the Mac port, but I may be mistaken (haven't played with it
for a while). Sun4c is right.
Thanks!
