As far as I understand this means that it's a bug in a device driver.
The sole sparc64 device driver that I'm aware of where -STABLE and
-CURRENT aren't in sync is esp(4). If reverting the recent changes to
esp_sbus.c and ncr53c9x.c doesn't make a difference you'll probably
have to search for the commit that causes this.
