--- Comment #1 from Steve Ellcey <sje at gcc dot gnu.org> --- An additional data point, If I build a MIPS cross compiler as a 32 bit x86 object then it does the right thing, if I build the cross compiler as a 64 bit object then I get incorrect results. The 4.8.1 compiler I was testing was built as a 32 bit object so this bug may not be a regression from 4.8 but a long standing bug involving building the MIPS compiler in 64 bit mode.
