I thought Erik Reid would be making some sort of announcement, but here
it is: bsd-4-0-0-branch compiles on NetBSD-current as LKMs (I don't know
the status of older releases), and I've successfully used it for
glxgears with r200, r100, r128, and g400.  Same build/install process as
FreeBSD, then modload /usr/lkm/<card>.o, then start X.  I was trying to
get module loading automatically by the X Server, but for some reason it
was causing hanging.

Also note: if you cvs update to bsd-4-0-0-branch from an already-built
trunk, mesa compiling will fail because it tries to build/depend on some
of the dead links that didn't get removed (Mesa uses globbing for some
filenames I think).

Once I get some time I'll merge it to trunk.
