I can't give you the dmesg because there isn't any. Kernel is not fully
loaded when it happens. Kernel is (at least I think so, where do you
check for sure?) 64 bit. The whole release was cross compiled on
NetBSD/i386 (Except for X11 which I just can't build using build.sh)
I'll send more info when (and if) I get any.
