IMHO it is an error to build a package with any stale working
directories.  Don't do that.   In all seriousness, do something like "rm
-rf */*/work".

VAX floating point does not follow IEEE-754 (and I think it, or the
PDP-11 fp that it is surely extended from, predates 754).

Agreed that port-vax should be helpful.

I remember the days when having your own uVAX-II was super cool!  I am
curious if Monica is using real hardware or simh.
