Pretty sure it is mopd. On 1.4.1 we probably did not yet use ELF.
The NetBSD one has a few local changes, like:

----------------------------
revision 1.9
date: 2002-06-07 00:52:25 +0200;  author: thorpej;  state: Exp;  lines: +22 -2;
Add Elf32 support to mopa.out (which is now quite inappropriately
named; a future commit will rename it).

Thanks to uwe%netbsd.org@localhost for testing the resulting MOP image for me.

Fixes port-vax/16867.
----------------------------
revision 1.8
date: 2002-02-18 23:00:36 +0100;  author: thorpej;  state: Exp;  lines: +360 
-120;
branches:  1.8.2;
Add support for converting Elf32 images on-the-fly into MOP images.
(This involved some infrastructure changes to the various mopd
support programs/libraries.)
----------------------------

Maybe you could try compiling the latest NetBSD mopd on debian. It lives
in src/usr.sbin/mopd.
