System: NetBSD arcanic 4.99.68 NetBSD 4.99.68 (GENERIC) #0: Wed Jul 2 14:44:41

>Description:
The dmesg at boot time no longer gives out the name of the cpu, there is only a
"class", the clock frequency and an id
Old, i.e. NetBSD 4.0
cpu0: AMD Athlon 64 X2 (686-class), 2010.39 MHz, id 0x20fb1
New:
cpu0 at mainbus0 apid 0: AMD 686-class, 2010MHz, id 0x20fb1
I know the cpu messages were cut down and indeed all the cache flavour
information is really not that useful at boot time, but the name of the
processor is.
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot NetBSD 4.99.68 GENERIC on Athlon X2
>Fix:
Restore part of the behaviour of previous versions
