That's odd.   I just downloaded and built simh 3.9.0, and it accepts the command without any complaints, both in "vax" and "vax780":

pkoning:simhv39-0 pkoning$ BIN/vax780 

VAX780 simulator V3.9-0
sim> set cpu idle
sim> show cpu idle
idle=VMS, idle enabled, stability wait = 20s

Goodbye
pkoning:simhv39-0 pkoning$ BIN/vax

VAX simulator V3.9-0
sim> show cpu idle
idle disabled
sim> set cpu idle
sim> show cpu idle
idle=VMS, idle enabled, stability wait = 20s

sim> show cpu idle
idle=OPENBSD, idle enabled, stability wait = 20s
sim> q
Goodbye
pkoning:simhv39-0 pkoning$
