I've made a hackish change to syscall stuff that works well enough but
breaks o32 support; it should be obvious how to fix that:

http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/user/jmallett/octeon/sys/mips/mips/trap.=
c?r1=3D204399&r2=3D204534&sortby=3Ddate

I'm fighting with rtld right now and believe I know the source of my
misery but my tree has stopped working for some unrelated reason so
now I'm trying to figure out what I messed up.

BTW I've found it very useful to work with WITHOUT_DYNAMICROOT while I
worked on the issues more fundamental than the rtld problem.  Trivial
signals seemed to work fine.

Juli.
