failures locally. I know that Daniel has done a lot of work in this area
in the past 2 releases so perhaps this has fixed the issue. Please can
The automated test infrastructure of the NetBSD project is based on
qemu, and runs some 100 CPU-hours per day of full system tests of
NetBSD-current on emulated i386, amd64, and sparc systems.
This is all still running on qemu 0.15 (!). The main obstacle to
