Thank you for the drawterm suggestion. It continues to be a possible alternative, if I fail to get 9front graphics working directly. But I would first have to get 9front without graphics working, and then start on drawterm. Since the x86 alternative already has most of graphics out-of-the-box, I consider it to be a better starting point.
