Something very strange is going on here. With simh and NetBSD/vax 4.0.1 I
got a little further trying to build pkg_install, but it bombed in a
similarly confusing way:

p.s. I've also noticed that when doing a CVS checkout on this vax it seemed 
to be sending the contents of CVS files to the CVS server. Perhaps something
funny is going on with the file descriptors?
