This is super cool and I'm very glad to see such work! Does NetBSD natively support the 486DX CPUs which still have the FPU enabled? I know OpenBSD dropped support for i486 in 6.8, making 6.7 the last that runs natively on them (FPU or not). The support was lost when moving to LLVM 9 and enabling `-march=i586 on i386`. However, old Socket 3 boards can still run the latest version of OpenBSD if one drops a Pentium Overdrive in. :) |

According to [1] they do
"Any i486 or better CPU should work - genuine Intel or a compatible such as Cyrix, AMD, or NexGen."
