NetBSD?  I don't think that has a PDP11 port.  (Hm, I wonder what
would happen if you run the NetBSD sources through GCC targeted at the
pdp11...)

Did any of the 2.x BSDs work on 18 bit PDP11s?  Or PDP11s without
supervisor mode?  I always thought that one or the other was required,
but I may be confused with Bell Labs Unix.
