NetBSD ran on multiprocessor BI-bus VAXen many, many years ago. Is

And it also runs on the 11/780 which can have multiple CPUs... but I've
never seen support for using more than one CPU (and the NetBSD page still
says "NetBSD/vax can only make use of one CPU on multi-CPU machines"). If
that has changed, I'd love to hear about it. Support for my VAX 6000 would
also be nice...
