for my VAX 6000 would also be nice...

   It changed well over a decade ago, if memory serves.  The specific
work was done on a VAX-8300 or -8350.  I'm pretty sure the 11/780's
specific flavor of SMP is not supported.  (though I do have a pair of
11/785s here...wanna come hack? ;))

Well, VAX-11/78x do not support SMP, they have (had) ASMP only.
