Uh...

Whatever patch got checked in breaks the heck out of the embedded-pic
tests in the assembler and the linker:

[...]
/home/cgd/proj/gnu/write/binutils/src/gas/testsuite/gas/mips/empic2.s:30: Warning: la used to load 64-bit address
/home/cgd/proj/gnu/write/binutils/src/gas/testsuite/gas/mips/empic2.s:31: Warning: la used to load 64-bit address

/home/cgd/proj/gnu/write/binutils/src/gas/testsuite/gas/mips/empic2.s:33: Warning: la used to load 64-bit address
/home/cgd/proj/gnu/write/binutils/src/gas/testsuite/gas/mips/empic2.s:34: Warning: la used to load 64-bit address
[...]


(That's for target mips-elf and a whole bunch of others...)
