 Uh, no.  It solves the PR.  It even solves the problem of untarring a =
 different
 implementation in a chroot and then getting the right MACHINE_ARCH for =
 that tree.
 
 It can be backed out if and when someone comes up with a better =
 solution.
 
 If exposes bugs in NetBSD, so much the better so we can fix them.=
