LUCI tests running on Plan 9 builders.

What did you see happen?

Examples from log on plan9-arm builder:

--- FAIL: TestRootConsistencyCreate/dir_slash (0.05s)
    root_test.go:814: with root:    err='.../TestRootConsistencyCreatedir_slash2266991326/001/ROOT/target/' create without DMDIR

    root_test.go:815: without root: err='.../002/ROOT/dir' does not exist
    root_test.go:816: want consistent results, got mismatch

Also:

--- FAIL: TestRootRaceRenameDir (0.09s)
    root_test.go:1149: rename /tmp/TestRootRaceRenameDir1031700980/001/base/a /tmp/TestRootRaceRenameDir1031700980/001/b: invalid argument

What did you expect to see?

The consistency tests are failing because Plan 9 includes a path name in its error strings, so the error returned from invalid operations using different path names will not be the same.

The rename test is failing because Plan 9 only supports renaming files when old and new names are in the same directory.

Note that os tests are also failing in NetBSD after CL 627475, for different reasons.
