Great, thanks Russ.
I have two suggestions for ape minor additions arising from my recent
attempts to run configure scripts on Plan9
1. Add this script (suggested by Russ) as /rc/bin/ape/egrep
#!/bin/rc
if(~ $1 -E) shift
exec grep $*
2. Make ls accept -i option (if inode numbers do not exists i

Since autoconf should deal with "any" unixy enviro
it's /rc/bin/ape/ls that would change, not Plan 9's ls-proper.
what does autoconf do with the `inode number'?
on the contrary... I have always equated the plan 9 crowd as the
"most punkrock" of the alternative OS crowd.

I have no idea, but I know that removing the -i switch from configure
gets it going,
so just ignoring it should be good enough

Of course ape's one. As well as I am proposing to add egrep to ape's
tree not Plan9's native tree.

I wasn't going to comment again on this, since it's ape's tools, not
the plan9 versions. I was obviously mistake

Jason: I understand your reasoning. However if two small fixes would
unblock execution of many projects' configure on Plan9 IMHO they are
worth making; they won't break anything.

Hi,
Working through the autoconf stuff I came across another issue: Plan9
awk does not seem to recognize a regexp that GNU awk does. This
results in config.status not properly creating config.h file based on
the configure's findings. The regexp in the test program was extracted
from config.status.
try using [_a-zA-Z][_a-zA-Z0-9] rather than the expanded form. i
didn't track it down to be sure, but plan 9 awk seem to have a limit
34 characters inside square brackets. a rather odd number
