For the record, I'm back at 5.0 now. Everything's working fine again. I'm not
sure whether I dare going netbsd-5 yet, as mbouyer imported driver_bsd.c 1.6
into netbsd-5. But when going onto netbsd-5 at least could verify that this
change isn't the culprit but something in the driver is. Guess it'll be tossing
a coin each weekend until 'tails' tell me to waste half a day without internet 
:)
