hi 9Fans

I'm porting the latest Tcl to Plan 9. Any help greatly appreciated.
I have it down to about 15 'c' files with bugs. See Ps.

Kind Regards
Conor (Williams)

Ps:
o. stat64 issue
o. VOID for OP dot
o. sizeof issue
o. addrinfo issue
o stat64 again...
o. not a member issue
o.VOID OP issue again

in 'c' code files such as:
tclOOCall.c
tclSelectNotfy.c
tclUnixCompat.c
tclUnixThrd.c
etc...
using the standard ape env with standard 'cc'....

TCL 8.6.10 is the latest release. 8.7 is an alpha release, with some significant changes and is still a bit of a moving target, if memory serves me right. 

The 8.6 version might be a better release tree to port.

It's hard to help if you don't post the code or the specific errors.
