mostly irrelevant. you see, MIPS has been 64-bit going on what, 10 years now?
there has been plenty of time to get the proverbial head out of the proverbial
a**.
it's great that x86 is finally catching up, and maybe this will get more people
writing 64-bit friendly code, but that doens't help us now with the code that
has already been written.
