So due to recent events I figured it was probably time to upgrade my
whole system, seeing as I'm still running 1.5.

I'm considering:
	* 1.5.2
	* The latest daily build of 1.6 on
	  ftp://releng.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/
	* The latest snapshot on
	  ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/sparc/snapshot/
	* Something else?

Any suggestions? I'm most concerned with the segfaulting that people
were seeing a while back. I never saw a definitive resolution to
that issue? Secondarily, I'd like to be as recent as possible so that
upgrades aren't too hellish going forward.

I'm tentatively leaning towards one of the 1.6 daily builds, since
I see on current-users that it's almost into the RCs, but could be
dissuaded if there are bad sparc-specific (or sparc 20 specific)
issues.
