if there is a Linux port to the same machines, and that source has
been made available, it would make it easier to create a new Plan 9
implementation for the SGI that could be released with less fuss.
a reasonable chunk of the MIPS support required in l.s and
for trap handling is not actually SGI-specific,
but the device and graphics subsystems are definitely peculiar to SGI.

Well,
no-one said I would want it just for free.
Are there any options?
