>Description:
	Similar to the m68k (as per PR 18314), various mipsel machines
	have binary differences in "C++ groff" applications in the
	text.tgz set:

    ---8<---
	extract /ftp/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-1.6/pmax/binary/sets/text.tgz
	compare /ftp/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-1.6/hpcmips/binary/sets/text.tgz

	Compare contents of {pmax,hpcmips}/binary/sets/text.tgz

	... is left for mipsel toolchain gurus.
