Are there any pointers or short instructions or a HOWTO or something
similar on the art of cross-compiling Plan 9 from Linux?

It would be easier to compile using 9vx under Linux, or a virtual plan 9 machine in qemu under Linux.

It is possible to cross-compile directly, but I've only built and used that environment twice myself

(once for Solaris, once for Linux), and it isn't any longer in any distributable shape. It might reappear

as a side effect of some work on the compiler suite. It's similar to the way Inferno's kernel is cross

compiled using the Plan 9 compilers hosted by some other OS, but needs a few special twists to

deal with the Plan 9 source tree.
