I have heard rumors that NetBSD-0.9 is binary incompatible with -0.8.
Is this so?  And regardless of whether this is so, what's the story on
XFree86-1.3?  I have it installed and have grown to depend upon it on
my system.  Will I need to reinstall it, or will what I've got now
work?  I doubt I've got enough disk space right now to download the
sources and recompile.
