OK, that's fine. So I still don't know what is wrong, but I'll try
drawterm when I get Plan 9 up on the network (see my Broadcom emails;
I'm buying a card soon)

MacOS X 10.4.9+ is already 64 bit capable, at least on the

it's increasingly offtopic but yes :-)
The whole system is not 64bit end to end. Objective C and Cocoa
aren't yet 64bit, and I've yet to fail to get alignment errors with
certain C memory allocation functions on my MBP with Tiger.
I hope it's all fixed Friday, not that I see me using 64bit apps
too much, I don't think I have enough RAM, even if the extra
registers give me a bit of a performance boost :-)
