Subject: Precompiled vax packages anyone?

In a fit of sheer 'why not' I've compiled up some NetBSD/vax binary
packages (Using the NetBSD packages system), and uploaded them to:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/1.3/vax
archivers: unzip-5.32 zip-2.2
devel: gmake-3.76.1 gtexinfo-3.11
graphics: png-0.96
mail: pine-3.96
net: samba-1.9.18p1 tcptrace-4.1.3 ttcp
shells: tcsh-6.07.02
sysutils: top-3.5beta6
You should be able to just download them and run
'pkg_add <package.tgz>'
They were compiled under 1.3 but should work fine on later systems.
Are there any particular other packages people would like?
I'm currently toying with compiling up X11, which would enable me
to produce a full ssh distribution (one optional program uses X11).
I also _have_ to get perl compiled up... on principle :)
