Yes, and even with newer gcc not everything will instantly work (neither in
base nor most pkgs from pkgsrc) untill more C++ fallout is fixed.

It is sad that several releases now have been unusable for VAX and I would
have loved to see VAX being part of the regular tested machines, but 
unfortunately it all took way longer than I had hoped.

Looking forward to 11, and maybe we will see a real vax or a simh one
in the regular ATF tests by then.
