I'd appreciate it if you would not cite me completely out of context to
support your flames. I recommend you go back and read the article about

FWIW, I think Tony definitely knows a fair bit about what he's writing,
and maybe you should start think about how NetBSD could make things easier
to do what he really wanted (add cpu-specific compiler flags).

Indeed. If you want to start changing things for the better
-> http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/howto.html (patches preferred :)
