Yessir!! I'm here at work. What's up?

Ummm... What shall I say? ELDK for  MIPS  supports  both  LE  and  BE
configurations, and both work just fine, except for the fact that the
dbau1x00  port  produces  warnings  because it is broken as it uses a
definition of HZ which is not 1000:

-> export CROSS_COMPILE=mips_4KC-
-> ./MAKEALL dbau1550       
Configuring for dbau1x00 board...
net.c: In function `NetStartAgain':
net.c:597: warning: integer overflow in expression
xyzModem.c: In function `xyzModem_stream_open':
xyzModem.c:455: warning: unused variable `console_chan'
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 127896    4548   22864  155308   25eac u-boot

-> export CROSS_COMPILE=mips_4KCle-
-> ./MAKEALL dbau1550_el
Configuring for dbau1x00 board...
net.c: In function `NetStartAgain':
net.c:597: warning: integer overflow in expression
xyzModem.c: In function `xyzModem_stream_open':
xyzModem.c:455: warning: unused variable `console_chan'
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 130072    4548   22864  157484   2672c u-boot


IMHO it's clearly a toolchain problem, but who am I to know such things?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
