no support from anyone and it's not really set up to work on a PC.
There is an issue that PPC has only one system call vector. So what
you do write write a value to /dev/cnkemu to switch modes. You can
start up with plan 9 system calls, then switch modes to linux system
calls. I have found this handy.

on x86 you just have to vector int 80 to a linux syscall handler.

RIght now this is really oriented to BG/P but it's so simple you may
find it useful.
