Description:	In the current main Makefile, there is already the possibility to cross compile, and various architectures are supported, but not the mips. I work on a VoIP board project for Sigma Designs, and our chip is a mips. Currently we compile natively on the board, which is painful. It would be great to have mips cross-compiling enabled.
Comments:	By: Serge Vecher (serge-v) 2006-07-13 11:17:59 I doubt the core development team has the hardware to do proper testing ... Are you able to provide a patch (which will have to be against trunk)? By: Yoann WALTHER (ywalther) 2006-07-13 11:20:49 Well, yes, I could spend some time on it, and file you a patch. By: Serge Vecher (serge-v) 2006-07-13 13:21:37 thanks ywalther: I will mark this feedback until you are ready. Please note, like I said in the other of your bugs, you will need to file a disclaimer on file with digium to allow the patch to be incorporated into trunk. Thanks!

However, it would be great if this could be compiled against a uclibc... Anyway, I'll prepare the patch for libc.

This bug can so be closed.
