Thanks!


BTW, relating to this one, I noticed some stuff in the gas tests that
might make it possible to reasonable fix this up so it'll work on
mips-elf too, and re-enable it.

I've got that on my todo list, but it's relatively low priority.

I'd rather have no failures at all than some xfails.  8-)
