System: NetBSD speedy.whooppee.com 8.99.37 NetBSD 8.99.37 (SPEEDY 2019-04-24 23:45:06 UTC) #0: Thu Apr 25 09:00:09 UTC 2019 paul%speedy.whooppee.com@localhost:/build/netbsd-local/obj/amd64/sys/arch/amd64/compile/SPEEDY amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
Recent kernels are unable to properly return results for a NetBSD-5.2
version of getifaddrs.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
1. Build a release, and install it (qemu VM is fine)
2. Create a /chroot52 directory, and unpack the base.tgz from
   NetBSD-5.2 into that directory
3. Boot the result, login as root, and execute the command

	# chroot /chroot52 ifconfig -l

4. A working system will display lo0 (and for qemu, wm0) while a
   broken system displays a blank line.

	
A manual bisect of the issue shows that the compat_50 code was working
correctly as of 2019-09-21 at 10:00:00 UTC, while kernels from 19:18:10
on that same date fail.  During that interval there was a series of
relevant commits starting with

	Module Name:	src
