I have locally updated pkgsrc and built and tested, but without sfcgal
(because I haven't gotten to packaging that).  NetBSD 10, pg 16,
up-to-date geos and proj.

All built ok.

regresssion tests pass.  This is big news, as previously I had
regression failures that I wasn't able to figure out.  It turns out my
libm had a bug in remquo, and I have (locally) applied the fix from
FreeBSD.  remquo is notoriously tricky; the BSD bug is in code from
Solaris and glibc had a bug too.

I do need to check that regression tests use the just-built copy, not
the installed copy.

I had a note that building with -j failed, but that seems to no longer
be the case.

I find it odd that NEWS is mising news for 3.4 and earlier, but that's
me finding it odd, not a real bug.

Overall I don't see a reason this couldn't be the release, but I don't
know enough to assert that it would be ok.
