Indeed. Programs under 9vx can make outgoing connections but
can't accept incoming ones because it doesn't really create a
virtual machine -- 9vx makes the connections on behalf of the
program. IIRC there was some additional code to add a proper
ethernet device (via tap or pcap filtering) but I've never
played with it.  This program works under p9/qemu because
qemu creates a proper VM (I then bridge its tap device with
the underlying machine's phys ethernet).

Yes. Here it is a different cause.
