Are you referring to the precompiled binaries or to the ports that will compile 
and is there another version of OpenBSD that will allow more packages to 
install or compile on the Vax? In other words can I install another version of 
openbsd and have less issues? All I really want is gcc, gdb, emacs and 
preferably git. Give me those and I am happy.

Thanks.

Sincerely,

Hany.
