Description Matt Turner gentoo-dev

dev-lisp/sbcl hasn't even had a mips keyword from what I can tell.

It does have a 'cobalt' keyword, which appears to mean nothing more than 'little-endian'.

I couldn't get sbcl to install on mips, and I don't think anyone really cares about it on mips, so please either kill the mips support code and the cobalt USE flag or, if someone does actually care, rename the cobalt USE flag 'mipsel'.

ok. I'll drop mips support together with the next bump. Let's keep this open until then. 

@Matt: Thanks for reporting this

OK, thanks. I'm going to drop this from the mips@ bug queue. Feel free to do this whenever you have time.

Since this was apparently never going to happen, I just did it.
