That is true. I just had a look through the doc/pkgsrc.txt file on
ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages (afaik the official source for
precompiled binaries) and it seems like only 200?-Q? binaries are
available for most archs. Perhaps a "compromise", such as building only
these packages plus security updates will be more suited to the
situation.
