Holy guana Batman!
Just for a wild guess, I'ld say that setting the sysname is screwing over your
namespace. The only place that I see the namespace changed after init starts is
the newns() in its main(). /lib/namespace includes at its end:
. /lib/namespace.local
. /lib/namespace.$sysname
Could it be that you have a /lib/namespace.blah that is blowing things
away?

If I set 'sysname=blah' in plan9.ini for a term, init just loops
complaining that it can't execute /bin/rc . Commenting out or
removing the sysname=blah fixes the problem. The same
thing is not a problem for cpus.

Yep; just one directive 'clear'!
