When I was trying to import some of the most recent changes from the mercurial repository I started seeing some 32/64 bit differences. This was while I wa trying to figure out why the patches would compile on my laptop and not the desktop -- momentarily forgetting I have this configured for 64-bit.
I remember reading of some prior work on plan9 to port it, but the person looking into it got discouraged after awhile because there is a LOT of stuff which assumes a specific word size. Anyway, I have little interest in delving into that at the moment, I was just asking.
