I found that the div instruction for the mips processor is not coded correctly and the "make installcheck" smoke test fails as a result.  Attached is a patch to fix that and allow the systemtap.base/arith.exp test to pass.  With this patch the mips-master branch will run the "make installcheck" testsuite on a 32-bit mips processor

Hi Dan,

I rebuild the kernel with CONFIG_DEGUG_INFO=y, had the systemtap source patched for the mips divide and ran the testsuite again.  Things ran a bit better, but the machine still dies on the systemtap.base/limits.exp test.  Attached is the portion of the tests that ran.
