Thanks to all who have replied.
I have spoken to russ; 8l may be able to generate object files soon,
but there is no plan for support for shared libraries.
Its OK, I still have some options:
use gcc/gas/gld on linux
generate the shared library as a blind data file on plan9
modify (hack) an existing linux shared library as a data file on plan9
the first seems the obvious choice but I would rather not have to rely on
an existing linux system, and extracting the correct build options
from linux's build structure is... complex.
its not as vile as it sounds the shared library in question is the
linux vdso systemcall interface and its tiny (three entry points from memory),
its just a shame that I have been unable to come up with an clean way of
generating the file on plan9.
