Along with a few more libraries I am trying to port. I will try to restart an old circuit simulation project. I used octave and matlab for some simulations for work. At home I am trying to do the matlab stuff using p9p 8c, hoc and awk. I would rather see more more plan9 code get ported to linux than linux code get ported to plan9. In this light a gcc is not the best option, I guess an 8c tools is best.
