Rubbish. There are no issues with NetBSD/arm32 relying on Openfirmware.
I was running NetBSD on a StrongARm before openfirmware had even been
ported to the StrongARM.
I am surrounded by  NetBSD/arm32 boxes of different types running on at
least 4 different types for firmware. I know of 1 or two other
environments as well that have been used to boot NetBSD/arm32.
