I have an SS2 happily running 1.5.4_ALPHA

It has a HP C3725S 2 gig scsi disk, which is know to have issues with
tagged command queueing (ie. it says it can but it lies). OpenBSD 3.0
caused major filesystem corruption when installed on this disk but
NetBSD 1.5 has been rock solid for months.

probe(esp0:1:0): max sync rate 3.84MB/s
sd0 at scsibus0 target 1 lun 0: <HP, C3725S, 6039> SCSI2 0/direct fixed
sd0: 2047 MB, 3703 cyl, 9 head, 125 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 4194058
sectors

Now I am thinking of upgrading to 1.6 - are there any gotchas wrt
sun4c/esp/tagged command queueing that are likely to cause me headaches
should I upgrade?
