I am not sure how people would feel about it, but gmake is in fact building 
quite nicely under APE. There is an old port in the 9front ports and it should 
be easy to update.

The same thing with gawk and gsed if anyone would be interested to use those 
for APE.

The thing about the psh issue mentioned before: mksh builds nicely on i386 
(also available in ports). A problem with 64-bit is that Plan9 is LLP64, which 
messes up mksh building. Perhaps someone smarter than me could solve that.
