It seems fine to me. If HJ can explain the rationale for it being any
other way in the first place, then we'll have to reconsider.
This affects only mips and ia64. Their uses are nearly identical so it
seems unlikely it would break ia64 when you've tested mips. But prudence
suggests letting the ia64 maintainer (or whoever else) test and confirm.
Thanks,
Roland
