Well, N32 is yet another case.  Have to look into details again but some
MIPS guy recently pointed out to me that there are a few syscalls which
for N32 cannot be handled by the o32 or N64 syscall entry as they are right
now.

Understandable reflex :)

Btw, I did just chat with a Redhat guy.  They say they're basically finished
and are just waiting for us.  Which means we need to deciede fast ...

I'll be on the Linux Kongress for the next few days so I'll not be able to
answer as quickly as I'd like to but I'll try to read me email as often
as I can.
