The canonical example for this does still remain MIPS I believe.
The most common ABIs in MIPS are: o32, n32 - Both in Gentoo releases n64 - Was experimentally done in Gentoo (default-linux/mips/2007.1-dev/generic-be/n64) o64, eabi, meabi, nubi - Not sure if they were were ever released in any way. Crossdev DOES support the full swath of these last I checked it. -- Robin Hugh Johnson Gentoo Linux: Developer, Trustee & Infrastructure Lead E-Mail : robb...@gentoo.org GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85
