I like this very much, since looking at the output it's immediately obvious if some code contains opcodes unrecognizable by a selected CPU (due to a bad compiler option or an inline asm error). And you can always select a desired CPU type with the "-m mips:<model>" option (e.g. "-m mips:3000"). If there are MIPS I CPUs which have have ll but no branch likely, etc. then their descriptions should be appropriately set in objdump. Otherwise, it's a bug in binutils. -- + Maciej W.
