why does 9pserve.c:451 

		case Topenfd:
			if(m->tx.mode&~(OTRUNC|3)){
				err(m, "bad openfd mode");
				continue;
			}

dissallow OTRUNC?  this means that

; mount $home/9/upasfs
; echo delete mbox 24 > $home/9/upasfs/ctl

and

; mount $home/9/factotum
; echo delkey > $home/9/factotum/ctl

don't work. you need to replace '>' with '>>'.
