Yeah, I would like that too.  I'll take a look at it when I get home
from work (now + 8 hrs. or so).  In the 64-bit case, readelf -r was
already longer than 80 chars.  The native elfdump is too.  The only
options I see are to shorten the individual fields, or use multiple
lines for each reloc.  Do you have a preference?

The fields could be shortened by removing leading zeroes, removing or
factoring out the leading R_MIPS_ in the reloc types, and reducing
whitespace.

Right.  Old habits die hard. :)

Okay, I'll send a revised patch later.
