Not bad ... Well, Linux/MIPS is not yet a match in stability. Linux/MIPS
was already in userland for version 1.2.11. Linux/MIPS up to version
1.2.11 was more or less a verbose translation of the i386 stuff for MIPS.
I then took the freedom to nuke everything for 1.3 to make Linux/MIPS
conforming to existing standards for MIPS. Thise includes everything
from renumbering signals, changing kernel structure definitions, syscall
calling/result return conventions, object file format. I did this at
the last second but now I think most has been done. I just don't believe
that is was sensible to build compatibility cludges for 1.2 into 1.3.
Expect a new release of all the Linux stuff including kernel 1.3.40 or
newer, GCC 2.7.2, binutils 2.6, GNU libc, user toys for the next days.
All I need is some time to clean up the sources for distribution.
