NetBSD-current is incompatible with XS3. This worries me 
alot. Because for certain applications we now have to have
two sets of binaries one for NetBSD and one for 386BSD or FreeBSD.

The easiest solution at this time for me is to find someone who
has netbsd-current and is willing to build the X servers for 
NetBSD. I can't do it over here because I have tons of stuff on
my disk and I am not going to spend days re-compiling my packages.

I will try to load NetBSD-current in about a week when I am good
and ready to nuke my disk drive running DOS . Love to nuke my dos drive :-)


Cheers,
Amancio Hasty
