On the Plan 9 update download page, available through
        http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9
I have placed a gzipped tar file.  It contains the Release 2 sources
for the Sun kernels, plus some relevant supporting information.  The
package is probably only useful if you're interested in using it as a
starting point for a Release 3 port to the Suns.

(After a lot of archaeology and some outside help, we finally
established we have permission to release this information.  We
haven't established that yet for the SGI Challenge.)

Enjoy, and keep us posted.
