If your kernel reported NetBSD-1.1_ALPHA, this occurred because of the
following entry in config.guess:

    *:NetBSD:*:*)
        echo ${UNAME_MACHINE}-unknown-netbsd`echo ${UNAME_RELEASE}|sed -e 's/[-_].*/\./'`
        exit 0 ;;

I'm not sure what that's really supposed to do, but I don't think it's
what it does.  In fact, I don't see why it doesn't just use 's/[-_].*//'
