Many thanks - could you send-pr the patches so they can be
committed to the main NetSBD tree?
Ragge - any reason this couldn't be uploaded to
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-1.3/vax/binary/sets?
A couple of thoughts on the patches:
xc/config/cf/Imake.cf:
I would be tempted to move the
#if defined(vax) && !defined(UltrixArchitecture)
block down to the base of the file and make it
#if defined(vax)
only, as both the UltrixArchitecture and __NetBSD__ cases
will #undef vax appropriately
xc/config/cf/NetBSD.cf:
Should probably add
XCOMM NetBSD/vax client
Thanks again
