Confirmed. Of the two choices you mention, I think it would be
better to remove the R3000 and R4000 macros for IRIX. Another
option would be to use fixincludes, but I think removing the
macros is better. Like you say, MIPSpro doesn't define them,
even in underscore form, and they've always been a bit flawed
anyway.
[ Reasoning: the macros sound like they're indicators of the
target ISA, but they really indicators of "64-bitness".
__mips is a better choice if you want to know the specific
ISA level and __mips64 is better if you just want to know
whether the code is 64-bit or not. ]
I'll try to bootstrap the obvious patch soon, but the irix box
I use is a bit under the weather right now.
