   I think it's OK to have `ld' (as an extension) handle this case.  But,
   we really should fix GAS.  It would be useful (I know this because
   customers have told me so :-)) to be able to assemble things with GAS,
   but link them with the MIPS linker.  The .o files that GAS creates are
   not ABI-compliant, and not for any particularly good reason.  (In
   other words, I don't see a real performance improvement/useful feature
   that the "incorrect" ordering buys you.)

Yeah, I guess we fix up unmatched %hi relocs, but we don't bother to
ensure that we don't have a leading %lo reloc.  If anybody wants to
fix this, the code is in mips_frob_file in gas/config/tc-mips.c.
