you can do:

	echo hello | cpu -h host -c 'wc < /mnt/term/fd/10 > /mnt/term/fd/11 >[2] /mnt/term/fd/12' <[10=0] >[11=1] >[12=2] | tr '0-9' x

you'll get the 9p ping-pong penalty, but at least it can be done.

you could run the operative part up as a script if you felt like it.
unfortunately cpu doesn't do proper argument quoting, so you run
the risk of getting unexpected results if you try to get clever.
