Yep, no problems at all. NetBSD works with all the old packages. You
can remove this feature when you compile a custom kernel, but for the
one you're using, they'll work wonderfully.

I'm not clear on this meaning. I just installed 1.5.2 on a cx and was
planning to install binaries from the 1.5.0 directory instead of
rebuilding from source. But this seems to say if I compile the kernel
myself, I can't use 1.5.0 binaries?
