> Why isn't 9vx -r yourdir good enough?

it is if you want to force all users to specify the root directory every
single time they run 9vx, or if you want to use an alternative root.  If I use
a standard install locations then we can either change "/Users/rsc/9vx" and
"/home/rsc/plan9/4e" or I can simply run a sed script during the build phase.
 Setting up a $root9vx (what I have changed it to) seemed the cleanest approach.
