i apologise up-front for asking this on 9fans, but, how is acme and
plumber and all it's utilities (including upas) made to work under
non-plan9 systems via plan9port; on say something like linux or even mac
os x?

do they have some kind of user-level library which emulates 9p?

take a look plan9port/src/lib9p/

also take a look at libixp:

It doesn't emulate 9P (protocol); it is in fact the Plan 9 implementation.
The fan-in/fan-out of 9p connection is done by 9pserve (src/cmd/9pserve.c,
partially emulating the Plan 9 mnt driver.  Servers publish a 9p endpoint,
and 9pserve is used to let multiple clients to establish 9p connections to
that server.
