Sounds very nice to me. I think it would make sense for other 
architectures as well. Looking at i386, it seems like the difference 
between them is not that huge.

Ah yes, I remember LCs, I think there were 68040LCs around, that were 
unuseable for anything unixish. NetBSD 2 changes that? That's great news!

That's very reasonable response to HTML e-mails ;) I haven't sent any 
personal mail in the last few days, as I was mostly busy settling in in 
the new place, putting debian unstable on my computer, and making 
everything work to my confidence. So I wasn't very active on the list or 
  CVS.
