Yes, go ahead and commit them.  Since they don't work with 
less-than-current NetBSD, I would put the following into their Makefiles:

# Only for NetBSD>=4.99.0
NOT_FOR_PLATFORM=       NetBSD-[0-3].*-* NetBSD-4.[0-9].*-*
NOT_FOR_PLATFORM+=      NetBSD-4.[0-8]*.*-* NetBSD-4.9[0-8].*-*

        Cheers,
