When you read the message linked below, it is good to know that the references to "brazil" and its "different graphics model" actually means something like our current Plan 9 and something closer to its current graphics model (maybe exactly it; I can't remember the details of when our current model was finalized vs when I stopped working on that server).  We changed the name back at some point.

We have here long since discarded that X server - VNC/another O/S running X seems to satisfy everyone much better.

Resurrecting this mess is more a problem of getting the "make" process to work than anything else, I think.  I also don't think it is worth it.
