I want remote-mips.o to be enabled for the various mips*-elf targets.
Would the patch be more palatable if I were to add a mips*-*-elf pattern
for this case?

Keep in mind that adding remote-mips.o doesn't prevent the use of GDB's
remote serial protocol.   The "target remote" command will continue
to work just as it always has.

Also, I see the pattern "mips*-*-netbsd* | mips*-*-knetbsd*-gnu" in
configure.tgt.  So NetBSD wouldn't be affected by my change anyway.
