Any hardware or software that requires local talk is history, especially printers. (I'm hoping someone will hack this...there are already serial port hacks for X.) And a bunch of stuff in X doesn't work in 9, obviously. (Maybe someone will write an X emualtor for 9, just for occasional use and convenience, kind of the opposite of Classic.)
I guess the history of Mac is full of aftermarket fixes, hacks and upgrades. That is a very good thing. Maybe a lot of the support for 9 things will come along in freeware and shareware.
