Check out /usr/src/etc/etc.svr4 ... there you should find a SVR4_MAKEDEV 
and an example netconfig file...I'm pretty sure that running SVR4_MAKEDEV 
in /emul/svr4/dev and placing the netconfig file in /emul/svr4/etc will 
DTRT...

Perhaps we need a compat_svr4(8) manpage, analagous to compat_linux(8).
