We have a program binary created on a MicroVax-II under Ultrix.
The program is fairly simple, making use of no low-level networking
or machine-specific calls.

It is my understanding that binaries created on a MVII will run
on older vaxen (730, 750, ...), albiet with certain instructions emulated.

Can anyone confirm if MVII binaries will also run on newer vaxen (86xx, ...) ?
