it is not the easy way out. it is the correct way. sun-os have a 
yield(). when writing plan9port programs we want the plan9 yield().
imho, the problem is with plan9/src/libthread/fdwait.c . it has a call 
to plan9 yield(), but still #define NOPLAN9DEFINES.
perhaps i have misunderstod the use of NOPLAN9DEFINES? i interpret it to 
mean ''use the normal os version of everything that has the same name in 
plan9''. what is the real meaning?
