address@hidden: Bug#195488: MIPS options in baseboards file cause failures]

[Daniel Jacobowitz]

Hi Rob,

Wearing my Debian maintainer hat, I got this bug report from Phil.   My
conclusion is that ldflags is sometimes passed to GCC, and sometimes to
the linker - fortunately -T works for both.

Does that sound right to you?

Running the GCC testsuite for a mips-elf target (well, mips-sim) results
in major errors:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2002-11/msg00850.html

The current MIPS maintainer uses the patch below to get mips-sim working.
