#define EM_MIPS 8 /* MIPS R3000 (officially, big-endian only) */
#define EM_MIPS_RS4_BE 10 /* MIPS R4000 big-endian */ /* Depreciated */
#define EM_MIPS_RS3_LE 10 /* MIPS R3000 little-endian (Oct 4 1999 Draft)*/
I checked with registry@sco.com; according to them EM_MIPS_RS3_LE was
registered as 10 in '92 and they don't know about EM_MIPS_RS4_BE which is
also lurking around in other free code such as the Linux kernel.
So the question is, did EM_MIPS_RS4_BE ever get used? To date I haven't
seen any objects which marked as architecture 10 nor any code using
EM_MIPS_RS4_BE when generating object files, so I think it should be deleted
before causing even more confusion.
