in order to make u9fs+chroot work under Solaris, I had to copy some
files to the chroot-tree: (i did a strace and filtered the 'open' system
calls, I'm not sure if you need all files)

	/dev/zero
	/dev/ticotsord
	/dev/udp
	/etc/passwd
	/etc/nsswitch.conf
	/etc/netconfig
	/usr/lib/nss_compat.so.1
	/usr/lib/nss_nis.so.1
	/usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
	/usr/lib/libintl.so.1
	/usr/lib/libmp.so.1
	/usr/lib/libw.so.1
	/usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
	/usr/lib/straddr.so

you need chroot unless you want to mix the plan9 & the solaris
file tree.
