Thanks for the patch, and thanks to Carlos for doing the initial 
comparison.  I've applied the patch - given that most of the code is 
copied from elsewhere in libc, it's under the threshold for needing 
copyright assignment paperwork, but if you intend to make more 
contributions then you should complete that paperwork.

Please also include a GNU-style ChangeLog entry with future patches (the 
text of an entry rather than a patch to the ChangeLog.mips file, since 
patches to ChangeLogs won't apply cleanly if any other changes have gone 
in since you generated the patch).
