Actually, on further investigation it turns out while dircp /n/ sources/ plan9/sys/lib/postscript dir works fine, diff -r dir /n/sources/ plan9/

tells me they're identical. So what's going on here...

the difference that i can think of is #Z.  #Z doesn't do
locks, exclusive access, etc.  why don't you try binding a ramfs
/tmp on lp's temp directory, /sys/lib/lp/tmp.  if that's not
it, the bind/mount list you used to get things working from
sources should give you more directories to investigate.

That didn't work. I narrowed the directory discrepancies to /sys/lib/ postscript/font but not to any of its subdirectories. However again, copying from sources and overwriting what's already there did nothing, even if I had removed the directory from the host machine already. I also tried to overwrite with a copy of the directory tree from an ISO downloaded today, but that didn't work either (however both ISOs appear to come from June 26, so I dunno). Only binding did the trick.
