Thanks a lot! This should help me build mips32 little endian stages now.

Is floating point emulation handled by the kernel, or do glibc and gcc
have to be compiled to support it? I tried building mips32-softfloat
stages before, but ran into library incompatibilities. I can't see any
value at all in providing mips32 hardfloat stages if the userland is
different.

Thanks,
Matt
