MachTen is not NetBSD, although what you have is presumably BSD-based
in some fashion.  NetBSD itself runs on some Macintoshes, but not
power macs.

I suggest you start from our sources in
/afs/sipb/project/sipb-athena/src.  I don't expect that they will
compile straight out of the box, but they're probably the closest to
it that you'll get.
