Confirm what? That the VAX-port isn't built natively regularly? That I can
confirm. I usually do builds of -current now and again (on the 8650), and
hits snags that the core group don't notice.
But thats about the extent of it. I play in my private little pond, trying
to contribute what I can, but I usually send what I find to ragge.

Late??? Heck, it's half past eight and I guess I really should go home now
and hit the sack.
I changed the Unibus box on my 8650, discovered that I probably didn't
need to, fooled around some with the TOY, have been running a backup on my
11/70, and have about a one-hour trip to get home.
