    Boy, it sure would have saved me some time if I'd had recent binaries 
to install instead of having to figure out lib and kernel dependency 
issues by asking stupid questions on the list.  :-^  <*cough!*>

    Unless 1.3.3 supports the new 1.3I UVM kernel I'd recommend to Robert
that he just recompile to -current.  I had poor results with 1.3.2 and the
distribution kernel, and anyway it doesn't support a color framebuffer.
I'm just going to recompile everything up to -current... Maybe I should
arrange to upload the binaries to incoming?  I notice there's no -current 
release for the 3 or 3x over at ftp.netbsd.org.
