that's one of the things I want it to build.
There's a post by Geoff Collyer a while back, when the SheevaPlug was
first introduced to Plan 9 that explains how to build the arm
toolchain before trying to build the entire system. Along these
lines:
cd /sys/src/cmd
for (d in 5?) @{cd $d mk install}
I'm not going to try that now...
I am :) Well, actually, given the /bin/ape/sh problem,
what I'm going to try to do is try to set up an alternative
9vx.OSX install from scratch, and apply the latter above instead
of the earlier system build (or whatever it is that the other was)
and see if that helps any, unless there is thoughts that is
an exercise in futility for one reason or another?

I haven't ever tried it under 9vx (or did I? it's possible I've
forgotten) so YMMV. I have done it at least twice, quite a way back.
But I guess it isn't going to break anything. Erik's suggestion to do
the same from /sys/src/cmd may be slightly more orthodox.
