RE: Patch for faster memcpy on MIPS
AFAIU, there's something with the register numbers not right for the case,
+#if _MIPS_SIM==_ABIN32 || _MIPS_SIM==_ABI64 || _MIPS_SIM==_ABIEABI
but my MIPS-foo is limited to knowing "MIPS" some kind of acronym :-)
So I've added apinski to the conversation.
Ciao!

I think I will add Richard Sandiford too. I don't know why regdef.h in newlib would use the same register names for the EABI as for the N32 and 64 bit ABIs but there may be reasons I am not aware of.
I have reproduced the problem, I am going to try and rebuild after removing
'|| _MIPS_SIM==_ABIEABI' from regdef.h and see if things build once I have done that.
