I suggest getting it all working as a ports add-on. Call the machine nacl.
If you are pretty close to the i386 machine port, then you might want to
use a Subdirs file to include the entire i386 port and then override one
or two files in the nacl directories. You can also use Implies files to
change the ordering of the directories which are searched for files.
