gcc 3.0.3 / SGI 64-bit platforms

Hello,

I recently built gcc 3.0.3 for IRIX 6.5 and noticed that the 64-bit ABI
is always compiled with the MIPS IV ISA.

For R1x000-based machines this is fine, but there are still Onyxes out
there which allow the 64-bit ABI but are R4400-based and consequently
will only allow MIPS III.  The resulting 64-bit gcc bombs on the Onyx.

My /etc/compiler.defaults (for bootstrapping gcc with the SGI compiler)
explicitly specified n32, mips3.
