Sure. Here's the first one. GCC 3.4 introduced a change in the way
it defines built-in ABI macros. Before 3.4, it used to define
_MIPS_SIM_ABI32 when compiling for o32, so we could use _MIPS_SIM ==
_MIPS_SIM_ABI32 to test whether we were generating code for o32. Even
when compiling for other ABIs, when _MIPS_SIM_ABI32 was not defined,
the preprocessor would get the result of the compare right, since it
would then regard the undefined identifier as 0, and _MIPS_SIM never
equals 0.
The change in GCC required me to give up on the shortcut I'd taken to
avoid having to include sgidefs.h everywhere that referenced
_MIPS_SIM. This patch implements the changes in glibc to make sure
every time we reference any other the _MIPS_SIM_* macros, sgidefs.h
has already been included.
