We normally write NetBSD/i386 1.3 (or 1.3.2, the latest version).

I just ran the regression tests on NetBSD/sparc 1.3H, which is an
interim (current) version between 1.3.2 and 1.4. All tests pass
except float8, which generates the following extra error messages:

Unfortunately, I can't run the regression tests under NetBSD/vax, as
my old VAX is having stability problems at the moment. Things were
fine with 6.3, though, and since NetBSD/i386 and NetBSD/sparc both
like 6.4BETA, it's extremely probable that NetBSD/vax will as well.
