I'm sort of disappointed by it, as well.

Yah, especially in Alphas.  (If I remember correctly, Chris did a fair 
amount of the bridge work for NetBSD/alpha on my AlphaStation 600.)

Heh.  There needs to be a fair amount of change to the PCI code in the 
tree to support stuff like this.  Chris's NetBSD/alpha PCI code does the 
trick, but it needs to be munged to work in the i386.  (Note, that 
Chris's PCI New World Order isn't fully integrated into the tree, the 
last I checked.  My Alphas are running Chris's last source snapshot 
(well, with a good number of local changes, but...)

My projects here may necessitate my doing some of that integration, but I'm 
not going to make any promises at the moment.
