I should have said more. If anyone wants pascal badly enough
and if there's a public pascal compiler that they like with
its pcode available, it should be pretty easy to translate
one of the pcode interpreters to Plan 9 (Kathy Jensen's was
only a few hundred lines of Pascal) and bootstrap
yourself to joyful oblivion.
I really don't like the language much, the same IO peeve,
but it's probably the easiest one to bootstrap because
of the pcode.

I'm running BCPL on Plan 9. It works well.
