By 'current' I mean the new snapshot from

  ftp://ftp.netbsd.org:/pub/NetBSD/arch/mac68k/binary/

I'm not running X but will be putting the pkgsrc stuff on to compile
'pthreads'.

The ADB hang can be a pain.

Is this snapshot built with DEBUG turned on? If so this might be the same
state as mentioned
earlier where compiling the kernel with DEBUG stopped the parity errors.

I thought the machine was virtually identical to an IIsi internally....
