Groovy, I was hoping someone would say it worked fine with Plan 9.

Probably. Face it, Sun's bundled cc was only there to relink the kernel

Such a Plan 9 would be much faster then QEMU, probably very portable
to any Unix-derivate, and I could run as much of them as I liked, just
with OpenVZ.
I found out in http://swtch.com/usr/local/plan9/9pm/README that such a
thing had once be do

If fossil+venti is chosen during installation, the entire
venti arena partition is cleared. Is there a way to avoid
clearing all of the arena space? Since in a sense it is an
append only log, and the purpose for clearing it is,
presumably, to allow recreating the index, may be a shortcut

Hi all,
is there anybody interested in helping to port the
plan9 from user space to amd64/x86_64?
The most platform dependend code seems to be the libthread
stuff. On OpenBSD-amd64 I can borrow an assembler version of
rfork_thread from the OpenBSD librthread and can improvise
the _tas function

this won't violate the plan9 licence in any way?
having a freely available image + qemu will allow a lot more
