plan9 has a incompatible diff implementation, which means to test plan9 utils 
I'd
either need to separate diff from the rest of the binaries or have some way of 
overriding "C".

Also, different command names, there's a dozen different vi implementations and 
only a few have the name "vi". This is true for some other commands as well
