if so, something's gone very wrong. =A0usually the purpose = of automatic
build machines it to insure that things build and hopefully pass a few basi= c
tests before the code can be checked in. =A0i'd assumed that this was n= ot working
since clearly the plan 9 386 port is broken on a regular basis.

if this can't be sorted out, then tracking mainline go is going to be q= uite
hard, maybe even impractical. =A0it's so much harder to get things fixe= d after
code is merged than before.
