I have absolutely no problems on my VAXstation 3100m76, it compiles my
kernels since the official 1.3.2-release. I got a problem around the
990101-version, where "ln" always crashed, but then i installed the new
current binaries with shared libraries, and everything went fine again.
I have a crosscompiler lying around somewhere, if you want to compile it
on i86, but give the uVAX a last try: get the kernel from
http://www.camaronet.de/download/netbsd.gz, this should run on the uVAX,
get the current binaries, install 'em and try it. This way it runs fine,
if it doesn't do on your box, we should check out the uVAX II-support.

so long.. Michael
