I have attached for you a patch against the current emulators/simh
package. Just
# cd /usr/pkgsrc/emulators/simh
# patch < simh-3.7.3.patch
# make && make install
I just tested this - on a NetBSD 4.0 i386 VMWare2.0 machine, running
simh-vax - running NetBSD-4.0 ...
Networking works just fine , so I believe it should be working for
Vax/VMS as well.
If you don't care to compile it yourself, I have also left a package
for you at http://www.spidersweb.co.uk/~ci/zoran/ - you need only the
simh bit, the rest have been created by pkgsrc during the build.
