There's no support in NetBSD/vax yet for the VAX 4000 series.
The closest thing would probably be the support for the VAXstation 4000/60
and the barely week old support for the VAXstation 4000/VLC. The greatest
resemblance here being the number "4000", but the VAX 4000 is quite a bit
different than any of the VAXstation 4000s.
