In going over all the posts the past two days, I think it would be best if
we use NetBSD as our "base" system.  This gives us a number of advantages:
 * leveraging knowledge of previous porting efforts (FreeBSD/axp)
 * possibility of using NetBSD's cross-compiler port (in fact, there is
not an openbsd-sparc target for gcc/binutils/gdb in the distributions)
 * leveraging platform dependent code from netbsd/sparc
 * for the most part, those that have expressed opinion on which to
use seem to want netbsd

I think that pretty well closes the case.  Let's call this a decision and
move forward from it - any objections or concerns?
