If you're referring to the list, it _should_ be fixed now... I was able 
to restore it to a somewhat sane state...

Technically, it's a bug in NetBSD.  However, the bug arises from the fact 
that the code to handle the HyperSPARC is, quite literally, a guess, 
probably due to lack of documentation and hardware.

I'll let Paul and/or Aaron answer this ... really, it depends on how much 
time everyone has (including yourself, to test stuff :-) to work on it 
before the release... (i.e. the release engineer, JT Conklin, would 
_probably_ let a change like this into the release branch late in the 
game...)
