The x86_64-rumprun-netbsd is currently a Tier 2 std target built on dist-various-1. In the course of updating that image, I found that the rumprun project appears to be unmaintained. There has been little activity recently (https://github.com/rumpkernel/rumprun) and there are outstanding PRs to fix build issues. The http://www.rumpkernel.org/ domain is down.

It is still possible to build rumprun on newer Ubuntu versions with the following rather minor adjustment:

diff --git a/src/ci/docker/host-x86_64/dist-various-1/build-rumprun.sh b/src/ci/docker/host-x86_64/dist-various-1/build-rumprun.sh

 rm -rf rumprun

However, I question the utility of keeping an unmaintained project as a Tier 2 target.
