Well, lisp != common lisp aside, I wouldn't mind a native CL system. I
haven't looked at the SBCL backend in quite sometime, but, assuming it's not
terribly insane, that would be a decent route. Most CL work that isn't
specific to one of the proprietary systems (Allegro, LispWorks, &c.) is
written with SBCL or, to a lesser extent, CCL. If anyone's interested in
working on a CL port to plan9, I'll start a lisp cabal, that can work on
other systems next.

I'll look today...

Q: How many Prolog programmers does it take to change a lightbulb?

A: No.
 -- Ovid

   "By cosmic rule, as day yields night, so winter summer, war peace, plenty
famine. All things change. Air penetrates the lump of myrrh, until the
joining bodies die and rise again in smoke called incense."

   "Men do not know how that which is drawn in different directions
harmonises with itself. The harmonious structure of the world depends upon
opposite tension like that of the bow and the lyre."

   "This universe, which is the same for all, has not been made by any god
or man, but it always has been, is, and will be an ever-living fire,
kindling itself by regular measures and going out by regular measures"
