"Funny you should mention that..."
You should find the patches in
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/vax/snapshot/1.4.1-pre/vax-patches.gz
do all that you need.
I have an additional set of patches that fix some boot and sysinst
issues - I'm planning on putting the entire set up if you want to
wait a day or so...
