I've fixed imake. Problem I'm seeing now is that none of the X code that uses
lex works with netbsd's version of lex.  Not sure what is the exact
problem here, but last time I compiled X I had to transfer the things I
wanted to use lex on to another system, run lex, and bring the output
back.

I'd like that too, as for now I'm just workin' on the old Xamiga
server...

Oh, another amusing bug:  I consistently get kernel panics running the new
snapshot if I try to newfs the character special device for a partition
(i.e. /dev/rsd3d), but newfs'ing the block device works fine...
