Is this an A3000 only problem?  Ie. has disconnect/reselect been implemented
in other NetBSD kernels (say, the one for Sparcs)?

Has anyone tried to disassemble the AmigaOS scsi.device - it handles
everything beautifully.

(Now that I'm whining again, does -current have dynamic disk buffers?  I
believe they would improve disk IO speed remarkably.  Currently, an SS1 is
7 times as fast in real-world disk IO as A3000/NetBSD.  Sigh.)
