We had a pure NetBSD port before, but so far no non-glibc port got added
to the archive officially (but that doesn't mean it would get rejected
if it was of release quality).
IMHO a glibc-based OpenSolaris would certainly be the better and more
interesting option (but might take some effort initially).
