Status of NetBSD on MIPS? And NetBSD on TP-Link?

Hi,

I'm curious if the bugs in NetBSD 6 which cause system instability have 
been corrected, perhaps in current, yet.

I'm also curious if anyone's looked into getting NetBSD onto these 
wonderful little $25 TP-Link devices:

These have a 400 MHz MIPS, are USB powered with a USB port, have 100 Mbps 
ethernet and anywhere from 8 to 32 megs of memory. Loading a new firmware 
image is as easy as using the web management interface. Of course it'd be 
fun to get a full kernel and running OS into 2 megs of flash and 8 megs of 
ram, which is something NetBSD can do but I don't think GNU/Linux can do 
anymore.

Of course you can wire a serial port, too:
