From an install to 9vx (built from mercurial on OS X 10.5.8) from
yesterday's CD image (though apparently some people on IRC have this
problem too):

Hello
(^d)converting from troff to postscript...

I don't understand what's going on here but as far as I can tell /sys/
lib/postscript/fonts/LucidaSans has never existed in the Plan 9
directory tree (checking sourcesdump) and my old VM works fine without
it. Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks.
