For N32 gas complains about 64-bit immediates and fails. For 64 there are a few problems I'm currently resolving, but the kernel links. As N32 is low priority for me, I'll get 64 fixed first, at least to the point non-PIC static executables such as Linux work. PIC and dynamic linking are next on my to-do list. I'm working on 2.12.90, though, as the MIPS/ELF backend was positively but extensively restructured, so the ultimate target is 2.13. For plain MIPS 2.12.90 seem OK. -- + Maciej W.
