That can't really be done.  It's 6 different ABIs to test
({o32,n32,n64}x{-EB,-EL}).  By the time I have verified that the 6th
works, the first will have already been broken by someone else :-)

Anyway, the point about not having fully updated the patches for
mainline was that I didn't really expect it to go in, since it had
been pre-rejected for MIPS prejudice last year.  I thought it was
going to be just another waste of time, but it turned out to be a nice
surprise instead :-)
