That said, I don't think this is a major stumbling block.
I know one of the guys working on Debian GNU/NetBSD, and have watched
him hacking on it on occasion; it works in the sense that it boots, runs
a reasonable installation of standard packages, and he can use it. I
don't think anybody's claiming it's ready for general use in the same
way Debian GNU/Linux is, though.
