However, it doesn't seem to return a tagged message for IBM Ultra SCSI
drives that support tagged qing. It sort of implies that the boot drive
sets the rules or they are not enabled in the drive modeselect pages.

Sun4c? The problem was known long before 1.6 got released. NetBSD 1.5.3
works really well on sun4c.
