Awesome Jason.  I've supped, cleaned, built and I'm now running a new
kernel.  Looks good!

OK, before I file a pr, maybe you can offer me a few pointers and I'll try
to track this down further.  I have only one bug.  Yes, it's that damn
second display again...

At bootup, the kernel does find both topcat displays:

	Jan 30 12:22:53 haydon /netbsd: topcat0 at intio0 addr 0x560000: \
		1280 x 1024 256 color hi-res catseye display
	Jan 30 12:22:53 haydon /netbsd: grf0 at topcat0
	Jan 30 12:22:53 haydon /netbsd: ite0 at grf0: console
...
	Jan 30 12:22:54 haydon /netbsd: topcat1 at dio0 scode 193: \
		1280 x 1024 256 color hi-res catseye display
	Jan 30 12:22:54 haydon /netbsd: grf1 at topcat1
	Jan 30 12:22:54 haydon /netbsd: ite1 at grf1

But once the system is up, I can't access /dev/grf1.  For example:
	haydon:carrel> /usr/sbin/grfinfo /dev/grf0
	catseye
	haydon:carrel> /usr/sbin/grfinfo /dev/grf1
	none
I have a modified grfinfo that properly displays errors (I'll send-pr that
soon) and it gets the error "Device not configured" on open().  I get the
same error for /dev/ttye1.

The device files look like:
	haydon:carrel> ls -l /dev/grf* /dev/ttye*
	crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   10,   0 Dec 16  1993 /dev/grf0
	crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   10,   1 Sep 23  1995 /dev/grf1
	crw-------  1 carrel  tty   13,   0 Jan 30 12:30 /dev/ttye0
	crw-------  1 root    tty   13,   1 Sep 23  1995 /dev/ttye1
