No, I'm aware that not all of them do. But perhaps you should take your 
hostility somewhere else, because I'm certainly not finding it helpful. 
I've gotten a good bit of positive response when I started this thread, 
from both users and developers. If you want to do SNAP for Plan 9, by 
all means do so. I'm not stopping you. I'm also not interested in 
porting it over.

I'm asking for help implementing real mode trap code to do in-kernel 
execution-time 16-bit calls and if you're not interested in that, please 
just don't contribute to the thread. If you'd like to lambast me, please 
do it privately.

Thanks,

Devon
