/netbsd.037: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, SPARC V9, version 1 (SYSV),
statically linked, for NetBSD 4.99.22, not stripped

/netbsd is the new kernel not booting, /netbsd.037 is the previously
booting kernel. The userland us up to date by 'sh build.sh -u -E
build' on the same sources that were used to build netbsd.037.

I'm trying to build a GENERIC kernel on the sources of today and will
report back if that makes any difference.
