Hi Nick,

Thanks for your review.

The new patch will update gold linker.

I will look at these tests, is there a script or document for test all
of these triples.
I just configure with --target=mips64el-linux-gnu and make, make
check, no regression.

I would like to commit patches myself, but not have write access yet,
how to get write access?
