dip is not part of the standard NetBSD distribution. ISTR it being an
extra with the 1.2 snapshots of NetBSD/arm32. This means it was built to
require the FPE which I don't think is in the stock 1.3.2 kernels. For
working dialup connections slattach, pppd and chat should do the trick.

slattach sets up SLIP connections.
pppd and chat set up PPP connections. 

See the man pages for more details
