FWIW, I think I'm seeing the same bug.  NetBSD/amd64 HEAD (snapshot from
201102190300Z) installed on a dual-core i5 thinkpad x201 with 4GB
installed memory.  I won't have access to the machine in question until
tonight (EST), but let me know if there's anything more specific than
"tmpfs isn't respecting -s" that I can test.
