Followup: I was confused about the emulated instruction problem partly 
because a standard netbsd-4 kernel (such as one from NetBSD-daily/netbsd4) 
would basically be unusable, but a kernel compiled with -m68060 doesn't 
exhibit any of the problems you're seeing.

Are your changes in current? I'd like to test them in netbsd-4, if you 
have a list of changed files.

BTW - I still have the time issue where programs which sleep don't wake up 
(top, systat, et cetera). The keyboard doesn't repeat, either. Not sure 
where that is yet. Are you seeing that?

Thanks,
John
