Subject: [trunk + 3.4-branch RFA] don't use empic relocs for mips-linuxeh

This patch changes mips-linux to avoid using embedded-pic relocs for
its eh data.  (Support for generating these for new code is removed in
current binutils srcs.)

Relating to this, previously, mips-linux and mips64-linux would use
different representations for their EH data (even for mips64-linux o32
abi), due to the mips64-linux n32/64 BFDs not supporting the
embedded-pic relocs.  This was a bug.

For more explanation, see the thread of the URL quoted in the comment
in linux.h.


Tested the same w/ sources of about a week ago for c/c++ for
mips-linux (native) before/after.  Also verified .o compatibility
before/after just to be sure.

I'd like this approved for the branch as well, so 3.4.1 will work
nicely w/ the next major binutils release.


thanks,

chris
