I agree, there are some stability issues with NetBSD on sparc64, I think 
they won't show that frequently if you primarily run it as a 
router/firewall. I had numerous system hangs when building large 
packages like mozilla, etc. Unfortunately I don't have the expertise to 
work on the kernel, not yet. There are probably a handful of NetBSD 
developers working on sparc64 port, compared to a large number of 
Solaris or Linux developers. I think it would be a tremendous help if 
more kernel hackers contributed to NetBSD. I know I will as soon as I 
learn kernel programming.
