But since my package building system is NetBSD 4, I don't get to build the compat40 packages, so they're not available when they need to be installed on later systems.
I work fairly hard to ensure that I have a separate build box for each production netbsd system that I have. The only problem I have with this is when I use the build box to test 5.0. I tend you use systems that have hack value rather than book value.
I am not plsnning to send-pr this (unless someone feels that it is important) - just initiate a discussion on how this ought to be handled in general.
