Hi,
Sorry, it seems it is long time that the source has not been updated.
I just commit some patches after doing a lite debug under NetBSD/i386 5.1.
Please update and test it again.

It doesn't matter about that option. But I am not sure if use new compiler
version will do some help. I still attempt to make it works on the builtin gcc
4.1.3. Maybe it is worth to try it with newer gcc or clang.

The same result has been reported by wiz in three months ago and the message
is different from the NetBSD-5.1. You will need a powerful machine to build
with debug set, especially on amd64 platform. It eats much ram and swap.
