IL works great in a local network.  I would guess that the change in
9P to better support a stream protocol like TCP was to get better
performance to system over the Internet.  One would tcp to a cpu
server serving 9P2000 which was IL'ing the fs.

My guess on the outside.  Jim?  Geoff?

 bc

void
tcprecv(Msgbuf *mb, Ifc*)
{
	mbfree(mb);
}
