...as NetBSD 2.x isn't supported anymore anyway.

ah, but is it *fixed*?

Dunno, but I can't test it anymore because the hardware is
gone.

Someone else might be able to, though. Conceivably. It's best to leave
such PRs open, at least when there's enough info for someone else with
the right hardware to try reproducing the problem, because if the bug
still exists it's better to get it fixed.

Murphy's Law dictates that a closed but not fixed PR will eventually
turn into a new PR that contains less information and is harder to
straighten out.

(Arguably the bug database should have a special state for such PRs,
so they can be found easily. I'm still working on convincing everyone
else.)

I thought that's what 'dead' is for.

have fun
Michael
