I am current as of April 28.  I also got lots of "text relocation" 
errors when creating a module (Msql.so).  When loading the module
it complains of not being able to find "boot_Msql" which is infact
in the Msql.so when examined with 'nm'.

I am in the process of recompiling the NetBSD libs since I seem to recall
some problems with gas in the not to distant past of which all of
my April 28 libs were created.

The problems I describe are with 5.001 with 4 "unofficial" patches
applied.  I am in progress of downloading the 5.001e distribution
to take another stab.
