Now someone is going to volunteer to make each of the ports capable of
cross-compiling kernels and applications for  each of the other ports...

COMPAT_HPUX needs attention as it's never really been 
massaged to fit into the NetBSD framework.

I'm not sure what the issues are surrounding converting the

so it can run binaries from the other 68k ports...

(Note: I'm not volunteering to do any of the above).
