These libraries are a fine way to go if you want to write servers with
the p9p library that can pretty much also work on Plan 9. We did that
for a while with xcpu, but a number of considerations (performance,
familiarity for people on other projects, bugs, etc.) moved us away
from p9p to Lucho's server libraries. They work very well.
