I have CLs at the ready for every change I've made and I'm committed to getting them upstream. Not to be presumptuous but I really think the way I've done it is the best way forward. All you need is GNU Make, Mercurial, a few modified library headers and the bundle of changes that I put in 9fix.patch. I'd like to get the library headers in Nix and hopefully even Plan 9 proper. Then there's only a handful of changes that I need to get into the Go distribution. It will happen. :-) Cheers, Anthony
