[20100501] Silencing the boot process
NetBSD-current is able to boot the userland silently with "boot -z" for quite some time now, thanks to Alan Barrett. Those changes were never ported back to the netbsd-5 branch so far, but I'm in the process to change this now. Here's a preview:

Of course there are still many places left in the kernel that don't honor the boot flags (i.e. that use printf(9) instead of aprint_normal(9) and friends), but this will change over time - I hope :-).
