In the 9front rc(1) manual \000 is used. I briefly grepped the git log to see if I could find the commit which explained the reason for the change (e.g., 'cd /sys/src/cmd/rc; git/log . | grep separator', 'git/log . | grep component') but didn't find anything. I also searched the mailing list for 'rc SOH'/'rc 000'/'rc separator', but didn't find any thread discussing it. Does anyone remember the reasoning?
