It would be utterly trivial -- maybe 100 lines of code -- to
write a srvold9p to do the translation.  Kfs and u9fs have
this built into them.  We dropped it from fossil because it
is time to move on, but it would be easy to make it a separate
user program.  There's literally no state needed.  There's
an easy embedding from old to new requests and then new to 
old responses.

(Our current program called srvold9p is really mountold9p.)
