Hi!
I've downloaded the Plan9 iso from
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/download.html and tried to test the live
cd. It wasn't really possible, at first the boot manager won't really react
(the trick seems to wait a long time...) and then some error appears.
But since I decided to install it on VM

Linux vx for Plan 9 would help people who prefer to use
Linux but must use Plan 9. I am sure such people exist,
but I feel no sympathy toward them. ;-)

not for much longer. there is a testing version of
upas + imap4d on sources (/n/sources/contrib/quanstro/nupas)
that might work for you.

plan 9 provides that portably as the stack segment,
and provides some reserved space in it via _privates [see exec(2)].
(it might be helpful to have some conventions for its use.

yes. linuxemu needed a kernel change IIRC and I was wondering if
FreeBSD added memrchr to its libc a couple of weeks ago. The system one uses
size_t for the len argument; the 9vx one long. Changing that to unsigned
long probably would make the compiler happy but would most likely choke the
linker up. I chickened out and just commented out the definition in chan.

Speaking of that, does anyone have an idea where NetBSD
would fit into that? Of the bunch, that's the one I've
used most and have deployed in the most places. I

Ok, here is the thing...
Here are 2 versions of linux libc tls and notls. (Current linux distries just
ship with the tls version i think, but here may be exceptions)
TLS is a libpthread thing that is heavily wired together with libc
on linux. (just do an ldd on something like ls)
TLS uses the tw

I got nothing spectacular from that, but changing the \x00s to QRS
gave me something interesting: without the loop, readrune gives me
[?]S, but with it it, it gives me [?]QRS, like cat would've.

Mostly, yes. The fundamental issue is that, presented
with malformed UTF-8, chartorune needs to look at
more bytes than the number it returns.

Last year I tried to port it, see the tarball
containing ftpfs and the mercurial history
of my changes:

It works basically, but some problems remain (from the readme):
