Which PRs are those?

I think it is matter for not being able to reproduce it. The last
two auto builds worked fine:

        http://releng.netbsd.org/builds/netbsd-5/201109041000Z/
        http://releng.netbsd.org/builds/netbsd-5/201109062240Z/

And I personally build NetBSD/i386 from the "netbsd-5" branch this
morning which worked without problems.

        Kind regards
