[Mono-dev] Patches for Mono on MIPS

[Mark E Mason]

Hello,

Attached are a set of patches to mono that allow it to compile on
32-bit mips systems, and that provide enough updates to the newer
IR form for mono to run at least well enough to get into the
TestDriver in basic.exe (see below). I know about the missing opcodes,
they, and a number of other items are on my to-do list. The MIPS port
is very much still in a development phase. When I previously left off,
I was just getting self-hosting to work. Hopefully we'll be back to that
point soon.

Oh, and I just realized that I forgot to include the ChangeLog notice.
Whoops.

Please contact me with any questions and/or concerns.

Thanks,
Mark
