Hi Nick,
    
   First thanks for your reply.

Yes, MIPSX3 is a MIPS processor variant. But I find the gas MIPS is too 
complicated to integrate the MIPSX3 in it. Although the codes of 
tc-mipsx3.* is originated from tc-mips.*, I think treating MIPSX3 as a new 
processor maybe somewhat easier.

I have rename tc-mipsx3.c/tc-mipsx3.h to tc-mips.c/tc-mips.h in order to 
compile the porting codes. 

bash#./configure --target=mips-big-aout

I got a new "as" that can translate asm codes to binary codes. But it 
generates coff file, what I want is aout. This situation also confused me 
so much.

surely. I had run "autoconf" and "automake" before doing "./configure"

Best regards
