Then you did not notice the one which attempts to describe the widget attached to the yellow cable. It was a tap who used the stinger design.

Please check if there is a different package for "devel" in the FreeBSD ports tree. There is one for linux, and you need to install the -devel one to be able to compile simh. FreeBSD doesn't have such silliness. :) The header files are there, it just looks like INCPATH isn't working as I don't see -I/usr/local/include in the output. The latest code at github will now build with VDE support on FreeBSD if the VDE package is installed.
