Not true, not true! Just a few things that haven't been committed.
In the last few days I've converted a 3000-300X (turbochannel) machine
to run the native kernel that Andrew Gallatin built for me based on
Doug's work in progress plus his own contribution (he should be offered
commit privileges IMO). I have a `make world' running on that at the moment.
There are no NetBSD programs in there at all!

I'll catch up on the commits. Now that jdp has done the elf header
revamp, the nlist changes for libc will be tidy. And alpha shared
libraries will follow too (maybe next week).
