Cross-compilers for the Mips as target using the Mips assembler
currently do not work, because the auxiliary programs
@file{mips-tdump.c} and @file{mips-tfile.c} can't be compiled on
anything but a Mips. It does work to cross compile for a Mips
if you use the GNU assembler and linker.
When you configure, add '--with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld ' to your command
line.
