The VXT2000 seems to have an SC26C94 Chip which seems to be a descendant
of the SCN2681, there is a more sophisticated Interrrupt Arbiter
integrated and the device has four channels.., nevertheless this may be
useable as a starting point.

The VXT has it's on vxtbus with only that SC26C94 and the SGEC attached,
should I do the same on NetBSD (rtVAX300-bus) or should I better use
something like vsbus?
