How about TSX-32? Commercial, alas, but there's a free demo version.
IIRC it's not too happy inside most VMs, though.

Derived or inspired by a PDP-11 OS, TSX, which I think shares some
ancestry with RSTS or something. I'm afraid PDPs were a bit before my
time - I cut my FORTRAN teeth on a VAX 11/780.
I was actually thinking about TSX-32 when I wrote that. I've never
run TSX-32, but have run TSX-11. I wasn't aware they were still
around. I'm actually a little surprised that the website has been
updated since I was last there. Although as the price list is from
June of 2001, I have to question how alive they actually are.
