i hadn't, but i just tried it like so, where Next is basically as Skip described:

cpu% 8c -FTVw -N ps.c
cpu% 8l -N -o 8.ps ps.8
cpu% cp 8.ps /386/bin/ps
cpu% acid /bin/ps
/bin/ps:386 plan 9 executable
/sys/lib/acid/port
/sys/lib/acid/386
acid: new()

Bsrc shows this happens right after ARGBEGIN. maybe that confuses acid?

i should mention now that i am on 9front, but i hope that doesn't matter.
