The current code assumes that sizeof(long) == 32, which obviously
isn't true on LP64 platforms.  The attached patch fixes that by using
the sign-extension idiom that's also used for SPARC.  It still assumes
that a long can hold a 18-bit signed integer, but ISO C guarantees
that it can.

OK?

Mark

P.S. Incidentally I think the function should return a LONGEST instead
     of CORE_ADDR.

	* mips-tdep.c (mips32_relative_offset): Avoid ussumption that
	sizeof(long) == 32.
