I'll install everything from scratch using the above files and post some
timing results.

John, please post the MD5 or SHA1 checksums for the above files.

I was able to get a cross-compiler working on a MacBook Pro running
Debian GNU/Linux 7.8.  Please let me know how to specify compile options
to cross-compile the above sets (for example "-Os -m68030").

Using the same kernel config file, the cross-compiler creates a kernel
that is within a few bytes of the kernel created on the LC III; however,
"BSD/Mac68k Booter" can only boot the cross-compiled kernel using the
option to boot the compressed version on Mac OS. It complains that the
kernel is not in a format that it can execute if the uncompressed
version on / in NetBSD is booted. Should this be reported as a bug?
