Yes. I have done a couple of 1.5_ALPHA builds on arm32. The first was 
from NetBSD-current 1.4R. The second was built on the previous 
1.5_ALPHA build. I also built full installation kernels and X11 for the 
second snapshot and burnt a couple of CDs for some friends. I know 
that one CD was used to successfully upgrade a RiscPC running 1.4 to 
1.5_ALPHA using the upgrade option in the installer. 

The sources I used were supped on 6/8/2000 and were merged with my 
local patches (uncommitted EtherH driver code). I don't recall having 
to make any other changes to get things to build. I could double check 
this if you want though.

There is a 1.5_ALPHA snapshot on the NetBSD.org ftp server in the 
current snapshots area for arm32. For some reason this is not in the
NetBSD-1.5_ALPHA directory. Presumably this should include install 
kernels.
