Just make sure that the line defining i386BSD in x386.cf has an
#if defined(__386BSD__) || defined(__NetBSD__)
instead of
#ifdef __386BSD__
the same goes for Imake.tmpl

also add
-D__386BSD__
to the OSDefines.
I also changed the OSName --- don't change the OSMajor and OSMinor Versions.

Otherwise it compiles with all options set, don't use HaveGnuMalloc, as
it slows it down visibly.
also change xload to look for /netbsd.
you can add a definition for __NetBSD__ in imakemdep.h
