Yup, it's about a year old. I keep starting on a new one and then get
sidetracked. I was working on one a few weeks ago, but things weren't
going all that smoothly, and then I got access to a U10 to play
with, which needs a whole new set of drivers....
I still recommend just using the NetBSD/sparc userland and compiling a
new 32-bit kernel from -current. It's much less painful than dealing
with the still broken gcc compiler. And 32-bit NetBSD emulation is still
rather sucky.
