AFAIK, it is not supposed to be bootable as it is created by makefs which
does not have the necesary support yet.

A bootable image needs to be created with mkisofs. The commands reported
to do that are:

cd /usr/src/distrib/cdrom
make RELEASE=4.0 TARGET_CD_IMAGE=macppccd RSYNC_SITE=rsync://rsync.NetBSD.org/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-4/<snapshot name> fetch
make RELEASE=4.0 TARGET_CD_IMAGE=macppccd
