Hm. For a moment there I was feeling bad about recommending cutting
off a platform somebody still pays attention to ... but looking at
the relevant NetBSD mailing list archives makes it look like that
port is pretty darn moribund.

Yeah. I'm wondering if that sh3el package was cross-compiled,
and if so whether it was just part of a mass package build rather
than something somebody was specifically interested in. You'd
have to be a glutton for pain to want to do actual work with PG
on the kind of SH3 hardware that seems to be available.
