Thiemo, what was the motivation for this patch?
2003-06-11 Thiemo Seufer <seufer@csv.ica.uni-stuttgart.de>
* config/tc-mips.c (s_cpsetup): Use mips_frame_reg instead of SP.
(s_cprestore): Likewise.
(s_cpreturn): Likewise.
It introduces an incompatibility with previous binutils releases, and with
the SGI assemblers, both of which use $sp rather than the frame pointer
for these macros. And the change to .cprestore breaks mips-linux-gnu-gcc,
which uses .cprestore before the frame pointer has been set up.
Is it OK to revert the patch?
Richard
