 "I have a U5 with a current kernel from today, hung is what I think is 
  the sleep forever bug."

 "Has any progress been made in order to find a solution to the 'sleep 
  forever' problem?"

 "From browsing the list archives, I'm guessing this is the infamous
  'sleep forever' bug, right?"

Was this not a real problem or was there a lot of chatter on
<port-sparc64 at netbsd.org> over a rumored issue that was really bogus?  

If there was a resolution to this, I think I deleted the thread during a
time of overload.
