Re: [9front] 9front on spim

["Frank D. Engel, Jr." <fde101@fjrhome.net>]

For reference, I am actually doing the build from an arm64 system 
(Raspberry Pi) and getting "up to date" when running sysupdate, and when 
I cd /sys/src then objtype=spim mk all I am getting a bunch of the 
typical working stuff followed by variations of the following at the end:
