While messing around with the '87 release of GCC, I was going through the steps of
setting up TME, and I stumbled across this derived emulator that is incredibly simple to
setup and run, unlike TME:

Additional patches adding a BPF backend Ethernet adapter is here:

The program itself is only slightly C++ with a few variables being declared inline which
was trivial to move to section starting to get it to compile with a picky C compiler
(Microsoft C). The IO is SDL based, so making an x86/ARM win32 was really trivial.
Anyway for all the SunOS enthusiasts I figured that you would love to give this one a
shot!
For Windows users, or anyone wanting to just run it on some unsuspecting normies I put
Win32 x86 binaries here:

I have to wonder how impossible it would be to integrate it into SIMH...
