The kernel probably doesn't care. Symlinks are just files
whose contents are another file's path. As long as the kernel
knows how to interpret it I'm sure it'd be fine. Look at the
inverse: Plan 9 on Linux simply sees a Linux symlink as what
ever the symlink points to. For example, in your 9vx tree
do: `ln -s sparc64 v9` and run 9vx.Linux.
