upas is buggered, i.e. not built by default.
see /usr/local/plan9/src/cmd/mkfile.

it is very much a work in progress.  john cummings and
erik quanstrom did the initial work, and erik
has continued to push on it.  i plan to push on it
some in the next few weeks.  

some of the code assumes that threaded programs
can use fork and exec, which is not true.
none of us have tested on the mac yet.
once the programs are fully converted,
it shouldn't be a problem, but it's not ready
for prime time yet.
