I've updated the patch:
http://www.ceres.dti.ne.jp/~tsutsui/netbsd/arc-vga-cirrus-20030117.diff

Changes from the previous are:
- load default font in vga_{,raster_}init() rather than
  in vga_{,raster_}init_screen()
- use macros in mc6845reg.h and pcdisplayvar.h to access CRTC regsters
- also set up video DAC palette so that all colors are displayed properly
- and more cosmetics

If there is no objection, I'll commit this in this weekend.
