Cyclades makes decent 8 and 16 port boards.  However, the cy driver in
NetBSD is horrible crusty, and is labeled that it doesn't compile
anymore.  On the other hand, the FreeBSD driver works fine, and is
actively maintained.  Someone who knows what they're doing probably
needs to pull over the FreeBSD driver and make it run on NetBSD again.

Is any of the config/autoconfig stuff in the NetBSD non-buildable cy
driver current?  Or is that part of the code totally outdated?  If
that were current, it would make pulling over the rest of the driver
much easier.
