Mark tagged the current HEAD as beta some weeks ago, but there is no
word about the release date yet. For what I'm seeing, there are no
serious bugs in the current master branch, at least in the VAX and
PDP-11 simulators. I have been using the testing versions for a time,
and they seem to be stable.

Looking forward to seeing how my NetBSD code works on that emulation.

Of course beware there could be obscure bugs... for instance we catched
one in the PDP-11 simulator which manifested itself JUST at the SAV /WB
command... The simulator worked fine thru the SYSGEN time... just to
render your disk unbootable after SAVing the new system image. :)

Was that an honest bug? There are some details and tricks around SAV which are not very well documented, and which can cause an unbootable system all on its own...
