I had reports stating the contrary, as far as HyperSPARC SMP is
concerned (which seems like the less-likely-to-work configuration):
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.ports.sparc/6945
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.ports.sparc/6943
OTOH, there were mixed reports related to SMP with other processors:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.ports.sparc/6914
Thanks,
