Yeah.  As an example:

   http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2012-03/msg00393.html

which doesn't look to bad.  Clean fortran results, which I expect
would test the FP interworking fairly heavily.  (It's certainly
been a source of bug fixes in the past, although I don't remember
the results ever being terrible.)

FAOD, this is with normal MIPS libraries and mips16 executables.
There's still no way of building mips16 multilibs out of the box.
