Good question.  

Below are pointers to what I was able to find concerning this:

  http://cr.yp.to/distributors.html
  http://cr.yp.to/softwarelaw.html

My initial impression is that as long as you don't distribute modified
binaries or source, you're fine.  So my guess is that making NetBSD
packages (non-binary) shouldn't be a problem.

I'm very sleepy now though, and I don't drink coffee ;-)
