most of the functionality of the plan9 module
is in plan9.py rather than the _plan9 builtin.
i currently have the following in os.py:

elif '_plan9' in _names:
    name = 'plan9'
    linesep = '\n'
    curdir = '.'; pardir = '..'; sep = '/'
    import plan9
    from plan9 import *
    try:
        from plan9 import _exit
    except ImportError:
        pass
    stat = osstat
    dup2 = dup
    dup = osdup
    execvp = plan9._exec
    getcwd = getwd
    getpgrp = getnoteid
    getuid = getuser
    getlogin = getuser
    unlink = remove
    import plan9path as path
    __all__.extend(_get_exports_list(plan9))
    del plan9

import site does not complain when i run it,
but i admit to not understanding what it does,
so maybe something is silently failing.
