I decided to stop doing this with Plan 9 and decided to do it from within Mac OS X. I'm running Plan 9 atop QEMU, which is implemented as a program called Q (http://www.kju-app.org/). The first step was to convert the compressed QCOW hard disk image to a raw one for analysis:

$ /Applications/Q.app/Contents/MacOS/qemu-img convert ~/Documents/ QEMU/Plan\ 9\ from\ Bell\ Labs.qvm/Harddisk_1.qcow2 -O raw ~/Desktop/ hd.raw

When that is done, I'll examine hd.raw in a text editor and get my files back.
