Hi all, If there was a push to write a regression testing suite, or at least some rudimentary tests, I'd be interested in lending a hand. Been working in fairly low level QA/Automation for a few years. Seems like writing a fairly thorough for plan9 would be no trivial task, but certainly could be

You can easily fix the generated include/plan9/plan9_libc.h file by hand for now. It seems /sys/include/libc.h is slightly different on 9atom, so the include/plan9/mklibc.rc script have to be adapted. Don't forget to comment out the generation of plan9_libc.h in src/make.rc. -- David du Colombier
