Thanks for the suggestions! I tried to do the modification (just
manually since it's two lines) and it does show up as 1 in the dmesg,
but no dice.
dmesg from my laptop since it was easier, this uhub2 is on an ehci bus:
[ 188.679957] umass0 at uhub2 port 2 configuration 1 interface 0

We use that nonsense without actually knowing.

If you are able, try building a kernel with the patch below.
I suspect this should probably apply without too many problems
to any reasonably modern NetBSD kernel version, patch is to
src/sys/dev/scsipi/sd.c
If patch(1) won't just work on your kernel sources, just
edit that fike, search for
