I'm running NetBSD 11.99.6 amd64 Sat Jul 11 13:21:32 EDT 2026 with
an HD5450 and see the same results with https://webglreport.com/
but it doesn't crash for me. I do have problems with some trash in
the window with firefox and a lot with wip/freecad, cad/kicad and
a few other programs since netbsd 10 on though.
