Yes, wait until a newer snapshot than "201206281240Z" appears here ...

        http://nyftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-6/

… and use that.

You can of course build a snapshot from sources yourself. It only requires four 
commands:

env CVS_SSH=ssh cvs -d anoncvs%anoncvs.fr.NetBSD.org@localhost:/cvsroot 
checkout -P -rnetbsd-6 src
env CVS_SSH=ssh cvs -d anoncvs%anoncvs.fr.NetBSD.org@localhost:/cvsroot 
checkout -P -rnetbsd-6 xsrc
cd src
./build -R /where/you/want/your/snapshot -j <number of parallel jobs> -u -U -x 
-m amd64 release iso-image

        Kind regards
