That's for damn sure. The build of /usr/pkgsrc/net I started this afternoon 
froze my system somewhere along the way (I caught what it froze at, but 
couldn't tell which package I was working on...need to go through and see 
which is the first package that isn't built), and I bet that won't be the 
last time. Still, it's a worthy effort, especially if someone from the 
NetBSD team lets us know how to upload compiled packages. Anyone here know 
about that?
