I have not run any of the mentioned systems, so all I know is by reading.

According to 4.4BSDs sys/vax/README:

The VAX architecture does not compile in 4.4BSD, as it has
not been converted to the new VM.  It is here for porting
information purposes only.

(VAX was supported up to and including Net/2)

NetBSD 0.8 was pure 386 (as it was based on 386BSD)

As VAX relates, http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/vax/history.html tells it.
