In case you are not aware of it yet:

By default, the nightly NetBSD housing-keeping cronjob keeps
revision-controlled backups of all /etc files.  (Also root's shell
profiles incl. ~root/.ssh/, and a little bit more.)   /var/backups
has all these files.

This makes it easy to recover all your /etc files.   The ".current"
files will probably already reflect your erroneous /etc download
but the RCS commands allow you to review and get any older revisions,
say, "from last Thursday".
