Hello,
Where does one report compiler bugs on hpcmips? So far I've hit two
annoying ones. C++ compiler craps out on QT(see my previous emails)
and gcc produces some ASM which kills the assembler when compiling gcc 3.4.

line 972 in mips_elf_got16_reloc
/usr/bin/as: Please report this bug.
Since this is such an ancient version of GNU binutils, is netbsd
responsible for it? Or is this a bug in the upsteam assember too? How
does one safely test newer binutils on hpcmips?
