Given DEC's attitude and price for the Ultrix y2k update a hobbyist
version seems unlikely.
On the other side, I was able to download the AIX 4.1.5 Y2k update for
free from IBM, and that is a live operating system.
Now only my DECsystem 5400 (ultrix) remains Y2k unready.

Ultrix was never released and I suspect never will. My guess is it has a
lot of the ATT/BSD code that was encumbered.
Since a license for ATT source code is now available from SCO unix for
$100, perhaps DEC can be convinced to release Ultrix as well.
Unfortunately, I have no idea how one would go about it...
