Here is a new patch for just the tests.  I added NOMIPS16 and the
-mabi=32 flag as Matthew suggested and I also added -mno-abicalls.

Without the -mno-abicalls the MIPS linux compiler defaulted to
-mabicalls and allocated 32 bytes without the optimization and the MIPS
elf compiler defaulted to -mno-abicalls and allocated 24 bytes without
the optimization.  This synchronizes them so they both allocate 24 bytes
without the optimization and 8 bytes with it.  Everything should pass
now, it passed for me using mips-mti-linux-gnu and mips-mti-elf.

	* gcc.target/mips/mips.exp (mips_option_groups): Add -mframe-header-opt
	and -mno-frame-header-opt options.
	* gcc.target/mips/frame-header-1.c: New file.
	* gcc.target/mips/frame-header-2.c: New file.
	* gcc.target/mips/frame-header-3.c: New file.
