I built a mips64-unknown-linux-gnuabi64 toolchain and noticed that
it didn't run this test
There's nothing wrong with your patch, but what does
mips64-unknown-linux-gnuabi64 mean? Is that just someone's local
invention or is it really a canonical GNU system quadruplet? Is this
what config.guess returns on a specific system?
It seems to me that there is something seriously wrong with canonical
names for 64-bit Linux systems. The current situation seems to be
that you can't really tell whether a Linux system is really 64-bit or
just has a 64-bit kernel and is otherwise completely 32-bit. My SuSE
9.2 Athlon 64 desktop system seems to be fully 64-bit, but we also
have a Debian-based Opteron cluster that's complete 32-bit. Yet on
both systems config.guess returns x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.
