i just compiled CVS under plan 9's ansi/posix environment
and found a number of very minor problems.
first, a fair bit of the code assumes that unsigned and
signed characters are the same; of course it doesn't
help that gcc can't tell them apart.
second, the concepts of mknod and rdev are foreign to
plan 9. you might want to make an ST_RDEV() macro
to handle the latter; i'm happy if you don't handle the former:
i can always define a null one.
third, lib/savecvd.c includes <fcntl.h> but forgets to include <sys/types.h> first.
you will probably want more #ifdef's than i used.
the changes i made are below. < is me, > is original.
enjoy!
