Building the VM is definitely non-trivial.  I have an old message that
describes the steps; I've appended it.  It was composed before the
final release, so it may not be totally accurate - let me know if you
have problems.

--------------------

Here are instructions on how to build the VM.  

1 Put self/bin/shell and one of self/bin/{sun4,svr4} on your path. 
2 Set the env var SELF_WORKING_DIR to the name of the top-level directory
  of the hierarchy
3 Go into one of self/vm/sun4/generated or self/vm/svr4/generated 
  depending on your OS (the former is for SunOS4.x and the latter for
  Solaris 2.[345]) and run "make lists".
4 Go into one of self/vm/sun4/optimized or self/vm/svr4/optimized and
  run make. 


Here's a script of a complete build (under Solaris 2.3).
