QEMU user mode emulation for MIPS knows two different default cpus:

#if defined(TARGET_ABI_MIPSN32) || defined(TARGET_ABI_MIPSN64)
        cpu_model = "20Kc";
#else
        cpu_model = "24Kf";
#endif

In this case, it took 24Kf which seems to be ok.

I tested other cpus with -cpu xxx. They either show the same result
or fail with illegal instruction.

This is my executable:

divtest-mips: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, MIPS, MIPS-II version 1,
statically linked, for GNU/Linux 2.6.26

The original bug report said that it runs in QEMU system emulation
(which I did not test because of lack of time). As system emulation
uses the same cpu, it should be fine.
