I think you are underestimating the limitations of the PDP-11 compatibility

I certainly am. :)
No split I/D space, no FP, any kind of trap exits out to VAX mode, anything
that depends how the memory management of the PDP-11 works will have
issues... Even some instructions you might play with are missing (but I
don't think most people would miss them, especially not since we don't have
split I/D space anyway).
Very few 2.11BSD programs would work in this environment... The most serious
limitation is the lack of split I/D space.
So I guess we have another few feature requests, then... :)
