I have, with the 20011221-1.5ZA snapshot. Symptoms and backtrace are pretty
much identical to your report.
Machine is a PowerBook G3/400 (FireWire) with 768M RAM. I'll be installing
NetBSD on an MCE expansion bay drive (if I can get that far).
Removing the AirPort card (which takes about 30 seconds) doesn't make the
problem go away. Nor does dropping the installed memory down to 256M.
