But some searching showed a number of people who have successfully run SimH simulators under VMware at least.  So at the moment I am inclined to believe that is not the issue.

I’ve run simh under virtualization without any problem.

I suggest you to try the current 4.0 beta, which is quite stable and adds a lot of enhancements over 3.9. You can get the sources from github ((https://github.com/simh/simh <https://github.com/simh/simh>) and build it yourself. I don’t know if there are precompiled binaries around, but to build it is quite easy and the prerrequisites are just a few.

In any case, could you share your pdp11.ini file and maybe the image you are using?
