I made it run on 8300 once, in the early days of NetBSD MP. I planned
to make it run on both 8800 and 6300, but due to lack of docs neither of
those came true.
So, unless someone has a 8300 to test on (just over 1 VUPS per CPU, not
much), current state is unknown. "It worked last time I tested" :-)
