gcc 4.1 was able to do that, but it required various #ifdef __vax__ in
random places and also lots of -O0 or -O1 instead of the usual default
-O2. Gcc 4.8 with our local patches came close too, but the upstream
version would not run on NetBSD/vax at all (I tried to upstream
the few needed patches, they still sit in their bugzilla and rot).
Guess I should find time and push for them, also trying the latest
upstream stuff w/o our local MD backend modifications.
