Use the version of Python, g++ and gcc that comes with the platform. If it's Python 2.2.3 or newer, you should be okay. I think a NetBSD port is going to be a cross between the existing Linux and MacOS X/darwin AGTk code and some specific NetBSD porting, for example the Video4Linux device discovery code in the following file: AccessGrid/AccessGrid/Platform/unix/Config.py will need to be ported to the equivalent NetBSD API used by vic.
