Just my thoughts so far on what I'd like work on:

"An improved virtual memory system for Plan 9"

Deliverables :=

1) A new set of data structures to track segments in Plan 9, that'd
allow for
an increased number of segments.

2) An improved libc memory allocator that uses anonymous segments where
appropriate.

3) An optimization - discardable page tables.

4) An optimization - page table sharing to speed rfork.

I think 1) and 2) are doable in the GSoC timeframe.
Have you thought about which aspects of your work will be machine-independent and which - machine-dependent?
