Bummer.  In what way do the build scripts not work anymore?  Did you
remember to use the boot-20c bootstrap file?  There were really very few
changes between 2011-10 and the release candidate.  Other than changing
the fasl file version, I think the only possible issue would be the
denormal trap handling.

I do have a NetBSD virtual box setup, but I haven't used that in some
time....
