Okay, here's a link to my patch that boots enough to mount filesystems 
listed in critical_filesystems_beforenet. Here's what you need to do:

download http://hobbes.melthusia.org/~gordont/rc_ng.diff
cd /usr/src
patch < /path/to/rc_ng.diff
cd sbin/rcorder
make && make install && make cleandir
mergemaster -is

Now, before you reboot your machine, you need to add some lines to your 
/etc/rc.conf:

rc_ng="YES" # Master switch for the boot scripts
critical_filesystems_beforenet="/usr /other/mnt/point"

Since O'Brien was adamant on not messing too much with the boot order from 
NetBSD, you need to put the filesystems (esp /usr) that you want mounted 
since I haven't gotten to doing any network stuff yet. Here's what mine 
looks like:

critical_filesystems_beforenet="/usr /local"

Feedback please as to if this is the direction we want to go.
