Hi all,
In an attempt to get the Juke program to play nice with other programs

Thanks in advance,
Jorden

Did you do this on Plan 9 or bring some of the filesystem sanity of another OS?
I can't help with this in particular, but QEMU does some really
low-level hackery to the point where it wouldn't compile with GCC 4,
