Well, for Linux it seems appropriate to use a kernel's configuration to select run-time behaviour -- in this case it's CONFIG_MIPS64 that was selected by a user that matters (i.e. that we use 64-bit addressing) and not a compiler's configuration. Just the opposite to what's expected in the userland. -- + Maciej W.
