Err, well, I'd ask Thiemo since he just changed this code to be like
it is, back on 10/1:

revision 1.234
date: 2003/10/01 18:57:16;  author: ths;  state: Exp;  lines: +10 -9
        * config/tc-mips.c (macro_build_ldst_constoffset,load_register,macro):
        Unbreak overflow checks.


To be honest, the change (that one, this one, etc. 8-) requires more
thought than i have time to give it at the moment.  ("This is why I
don't want to be a maintainer of stuff.")
