Hi,
the attached patch brings mips up to date concerning the
{INTERNAL,INLINE}_SYSCALL macros. I'm aware that we can probably
save some more cycles by defining INLINE_SYSCALL directly and avoiding
the err variable, but I'd like to leave this asside until the
cancelation handling is fixed.
With the attached patch glibc passess all the tests it passes without it
and is able to "replicate itself" (compile glibc with a glibc installed
that uses this patch).
I'm cc'ing the linux-mips list for comments.

P.S.: many thanks to Thiemo and aj for their explanations.
