I forget, but too many for me. Found somebody with Google that got
several "broken" things running, but he didn't say how.
I had a few problems with base-system stuff but probably could have
lived with that. (Eg, I had to use older ncr instead of sym.) The
problems are with the ports, so waiting for 6.x won't help.
