I found Phils code when I looked into this yesterday. There also the VR12 
emulation in the, now dormant, GreenPea[1] project. I was wondering which 
graphics library to use but since both simh and GreenPea uses SDL I guess 
that settle that.

I found and read Dougs[2] VC8E summary. Do you have any other docs? A 
cursory look on bitsavers didn't give any result.
