This build farm also serves a number of other systems. like primarily Linux and BSDs. 9front is the one that requires a special setup in the framework. This is implemented, but it's suboptimal and it produces its own bugs. It would be better IMO to handle Plan 9 as any other system. That's why I'm asking. And that's also why suggesting some other tool in general is not an answer to my question, sorry :-(. Thanks, benny
