Assume a big-endian default on MIPS and drop the "eb" suffix from MACHINE_ARCH. This makes our naming scheme more closely match other systems and the expectations of much third-party software. MIPS builds which are little-endian should require and exhibit no changes. Big-endian TARGET_ARCHes must be changed: From: To: mipseb mips mipsn32eb mipsn32 mips64eb mips64
An entry has been added to UPDATING and some foot-shooting protection (complete with warnings which should become errors in the near future) to the top-level base system Makefile.
