[Simh] XXDP v2

The "2.2" image on ibibilio is actually XXDP+, the "V1" monitor. It runs 
everything, including the 11/03 and 11/23 with BEVENT enabled. The 2.5 
image runs on the 03 and 23 with BEVENT disabled, as well as the 04, 05, 
20; in effect, everything as well.

So the problem occurs in Mattis' XXDP 2.2 image. For the 2.2 image, all 
the non-MMU systems fail on the simulator, including the 11/23 if the 
MMU is disabled. The failures appear be similar.

I have not found sources for the XXDP V2 monitor.
