What would the argument be to go with 1.4.3? Are there any known
problems with 1.5 I should know about for setting up my 660AV with
Asante MacCon3NB card to be a router?

Hard to say, but a case could be made to go with the latest version on
the mature branch. That would be NetBSD 1.4.3, which includes ipfilter
3.3.6. I can't imagine why anyone would want to use 1.4.2 for a new
installation.

All the time. The Booter isn't scriptable, but it can be set to boot
into NetBSD automatically, and an alias placed in the "Startup Items"
folder.
