  Currently I believe not.  According to Rick Macklem those QDSS and QVSS
drivers work but follow the 4.3 Reno device interface scheme.  He seemed to
think that it wouldn't take that much work to make them go with NetBSD but no
one has done it yet.  I would if I had the time...

  Any functional version of 4.3 is encumbered, so you can't really run it
legally.  I don't really know about 4.4.
