Also, I am not sure that shared libraries were available with netbsd-0.9 Last but not least nebsd-current is a rapidly evolving OS and there is no current snapshot available. There is an upgrade path to netbsd-current from netbsd-0.9;however, you will be at the mercy of the current shape of the netbsd-current src tree. For peace of mind is best to wait till the netbsd group generates a release then we can start running it and porting apps again.
