I'm using the little endian rpm from ftp.linux.sgi.com. Here is the md5sum: bce052ce002cbe434133cecf2c4a4f10 binutils-2.8.1-1.mips.rpm and: Linux mips.franken.de 2.1.72 #140 Sat Jan 3 23:43:04 MET 1998 mips [root@mips /root]# ld --version GNU ld 2.8.1 Copyright 1997 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Supported emulations: elf32lmip elf32bmip mipslit mipsbig I'm sure the binutils 2.7, I've used before, didn't have the bug. But I wanted to make the redhat-5.0 rpms with the newer binutils.
