>(I suspect a *real* patch will be posted soon...)

I recevied this set of patches from this same question.  Thanks to
everyone that helped get this working.  The emacs that I created with
these changes works flawlessly.

Here is the patchfile I got:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - Cut Here - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

These are, hopefully, the changes that will be in Emacs 19.18.  Note
that until you get the fixed version of `uname' you will have to
explicitly tell configure what sort of machine it is.  I recommend
`i386-unknown-netbsd0.9'.

Unfortunately, there is some bizarre signal lossage when Emacs is
started from rc (the shell I use, not /etc/rc) that I haven't yet
tracked down.  It works fine from csh or bash or whatever, though.
