Thanks! I still think a real port would be better, and probably not too hard. But your post made me think … maybe it would be nice to separate the front end from the back end, so devdraw would be one possibility, the native file system another and possibly an imported 9fans.net/go/plan9/client a third one.
But for now, I think I will just hard-wire the native file system for Plan 9 and devdraw for all other OSs.
