the most notable differences are that (by default) the network stack
is very stripped down and the file system goes through a special
pass-through driver (#Z) rather than fossil or whatnot. there are
patches to change both behaviors (use a tun device to allocate a
virtual interface to 9vx; use raw disks and run fossil), but afaik
neither is in the mainline branch.
