I'm intending to take a whack at it on netbsd-i386 in the fairly near
future. No idea how well it'll work; the sarge release stuff has some
bitrot issues with changes that whacked other changes, and a couple of
things that I'm having trouble figuring out why they're broken.
But since the X.Org build system differs, well, we'll see how it goes,
I guess.
