Well, you've taken me MUCH further than I've been for a year, and I appreciate your efforts to help tremendously!
For the record, the architecture is amd64. Yes, both `reboot` and `halt` work perfectly with a current (9.99.96 and later) kernel. Neither worked with 9.2 STABLE. Maybe Netbsd 10 will be the magic release. Fingers crossed.
