IDT still claims to be selling the MIPS chips, but it's not so clear 
about the boards that the mips-idt config targets.  Their site has board 
manuals dated as recently as 2006.

Perhaps this would be a good candidate for official deprecation in 7.5 - 
I certainly wouldn't miss the funkiness that is remote-mips.c ... :-)
