I wasn't particularly trying to fix failing test cases when I made the
patch.  It was more a case of removing code that was no longer
necessary due to the symbol resolution changes, and fixing one or two
things I noticed in the process.

Someone decided it was too much trouble to fix the assembler and
instead marked the test as "expected to fail" (mips.exp:172).  XPASS
means an unexpected pass.
