yes, but what happens when you need modules that depend on
stuff that hasn't been ported to Plan 9 natively?
I have had problems with apps that needed the select module
and also required that the socket one to support ssl (which needs
openssl).

I guess we should start writing emulation wrappers or whatever
they're called for the stuff we don't have
