This workaround does, in fact, make i386 boot for me while my SATA 
controller is in AHCI mode.  My opinion is that it should be committed 
on the branch as a patch (so that a real fix can be made on the trunk), 
and netbsd-6 RC1 released.  Can anyone else try?  My .iso that I tested 
is here:

...if anyone else wants to test.  It's -current plus the patch in that 
email.
