Yes, I ported it.  It was not very difficult at all.  I used the same
configuration files that were posted here a while back for (text-base)
Gnu Emacs and it compiled right up.  For those interested parties, here
is a copy of the previous post with the configuration files:

The following shar file contains the two configuration files required
for GNU emacs 18.58 under 386BSD 0.1 (s-386bsd.h and m-386bsd.h) and a
brief README.  I have assumed that anybody who wants this has read the
GNU emacs INSTALL document.

I didn't know about Pace Willisson's earlier configuration for 386BSD 0.0
when I started this.  This version is organized rather differently than
Pace's and has one improvement --- the load-average function will now work
if emacs is installed with the correct privileges.

XThe two files s-386bsd.h and m-386bsd.h configure GNU emacs 18.58 for
X386BSD 0.1.  Copy them to the directory $BUILD/src where $BUILD stands
Xfor the topmost directory of the GNU emacs distribution.  You may then
Xfollow the instructions in the GNU Emacs Installation Guide using
Xs-386bsd.h and m-386bsd.h as the s- and m- files in conf.h.  Note,
Xhowever, that you must edit $BUILD/Makefile changing `/bin/sed' to
X`/usr/bin/sed' before running make.  Also note that you must run the
Xfollowing commands (as root) after installing emacs.
X
Xcd /usr/local/bin	# or wherever the emacs binary was installed
Xchgrp kmem emacs
Xchmod g+s emacs
X
XIf you don't perform this last step then the load-average function
Xwill always return (0 0 0).
X
XNOTES
X
X- Pressing Ctrl-Shift-2 generates `@' rather than C-@ so you will
X  have to change the keyboard mapping for set-mark.  I think that
X  this must be an oddity in the 386BSD keyboard driver.
X
X- There is nothing wrong with the status line.  The termcap database
X  for the console highlights text by changing the colour rather than
X  using inverse video: this looks rather odd if you are used to seeing
X  emacs on monochrome terminals.
X
X- The only substantial difference between m-386bsd.h and m-intel386.h
X  are the macros relating to the load average.  These should probably
X  have been placed in a #ifdef block in m-intel386.h but I dislike
X  #ifdefs.
