[Simh] Ethernet Windows binaries for 3.9?

I've finally got round to trying the 3.9-0 VAX SIMH, and VAX.EXE crashes
immediately (0C5 on address 0x077c3554a) on starting emulation (BOOT CPU),
even if I don't use any INI file and just start an empty machine.  This is
on Windows XP. I have Winpcap 4.1.2, and reverting VAX.exe to the 3.7.3
version boots and runs OK. Has anyone else succeeded in running the VAX SIMH
from the github link below?

 

Regards,

Hi Paul,

 

Simh V3.9-0 windows binaries which will work with or without network support
(depending on whether WinPcap is installed) can be downloaded from:

 

https://github.com/downloads/simh/simh/simhv39-0-Win32Binaries.zip

I've been using 3.7.x for a while, and thought I should upgrade to 3.9,
particularly in order to get network loopback from SIMH client (VAX) to host
(Windows XP). I'm confused as to whether I can use the windows binaries on
trailing-edge.com - in the past I think I had to explicitly acquire binaries
with Ethernet support (I have WinPCap).

 

It says:

>> Download a zip file containing Windows executables for all the SIMH
simulators.  The VAX and PDP-11 are compiled without Ethernet support.

 

So, where do I find binaries with Ethernet support for 3.9?
