Now this sounds useful I have to disable reselect under Intuition to get
syncronous to work, ansync has no problems. Strangely using the 
loadbsd -I ff switch makes no difference to this. I'll try patching this,
but the question here is what should the value be, this is what it is now:

root@amy:~/root2/src/binpatch# ./binpatch.bsdexe -l -s _sbic_enable_reselect /netbsd
_sbic_enable_reselect(0x76c9c): 268214 (0x417b6)

Pity it ain't boolean =(
