 The fix has now been pulled up to the netbsd-7 branch. This means if
 you use netbsd-7 (that is, 7_STABLE) install images from after the
 pullup commit (which you can see in PR 51226) the problem should not
 recur. Or you can use -current (aka HEAD), the development version of
 NetBSD; for old mips hardware that might be a better choice.
 
 7.0.1 does not contain the fix, and neither will 7.0.2 when that
 appears as the 7.0.x series only receives critical security fixes.
 
 Also, please send emails to the bug database (sending to gnats-bugs@)
 rather than to individual developers, as that way (a) someone else may
 respond faster, (b) the information remains organized and doesn't get
 lost, and (c) it remains on file in the database if time passes and
 someone else has to rake it all up later.
