thanks, i'd overlooked that option
I must say though that having to re-target to limbo is a minus. Is
there a 'plan9 c' to dis compiler? The new slew of virtual interfaces
are cool because they are somewhat transparent with respect to the
existing interface; i.e., machine code
in the general case, i'd like a non-linux platform to take plan9 (not
inferno) to more machines
i am not intending to knock inferno. But does it not seem to have
missed the boat as a unifying platform, and now is more of a niche,
'embedded' solution ? (Maybe though this was intended all along.) I
seem more interested today in broadly employing the more general
virtual interfaces such as vx32, lguest, kvm, qemu, etc
