Um, not quite, I'm afraid.  I seem to remember fixing this, and
yes, I found it in my archive and I now think I remember what I
did...

The problem is that on NetBSD/Sun4 you should not be using GNU's
malloc() routine, as it only aligns on 4 byte boundaries, whereas
alignment on 8 byte boundaries is needed for support of the "long
long" data type, which I think is used by (among other things)
the NLS part of the C library.

I fixed this by inserting (or modifying, I don't remember
anymore) the attached section in the machines.h file in bash.
Arguably, GNU's malloc() could be fixed instead, but I found the
way I did it to be the easiest workaround.


Hope this helps.
