Neither would work out of the box, though.
An extra of indirection may not be the most efficient thing, but...
My approach thus far has been

rsc's recent post about 9vx port to windows and the relative ease
compared to porting p9p.

I have a long term project to get somthing like p9p running under windows
though my goal is to use a windows box as a plan9 cpu server so /dev/draw
is not a priority.
My approach is very similar to Russ's p9p for windows alpha on swtch.com
but it is many months away from finished - i get a day a
