>Originator:     Joachim Thiemann
>Release:        6.99.40
>Organization:
Carl-von-Ossietzky University Oldenburg
>Environment:
NetBSD rpi 6.99.40 NetBSD 6.99.40 (RPI) #3: Thu Apr 10 14:59:51 CEST 2014  
srcr@virt:/usr/obj/sys/arch/evbarm/compile/RPI evbarm
>Description:
Booting with a new kernel (6.99.38 or so; exact version unknown) resulted in a 
nonbooting system, even rescue binaries didn't work (init fails), using an 
userland around 6.99.28.

See thread "Current build of netbsd for rpi is unable to boot" on port-arm.

>How-To-Repeat:
Install a RPI system from March 2014, replace the kernel with one from at least 
Apr. 7th. Boot.
>Fix:
Either upgrade all of userland, or use kernel option COMPAT_NETBSD32.  The 
latter can still cause problems though, with dynamic libraries (I think).
