My spare development time's been taken up with toybox, when I wasn't
staying late at work.
Ok, mips is broken, and the REASON mips is broken is QEMU broke between
0.15.1 and 1.0. Specfiically commit 5632ae46: "mips_malta: move i8259
initialization after piix4 initialization" broke the network on mips.
It still comes up, but doesn't pass packets.
I was bisecting the kernel and trying to track down the regression, but
the last release binaries didn't work either, which clued me in it was
qemu. (There's a reason I keep those suckers around.)
I'm not quite sure how to deal with that one. I'm pinging the qemu
list, and I'm going to take a stab at getting e1000 to work on mips.
Other than that, the release notes are written up and I have binaries
ready and waiting, just... need to actually get stuff _working_ before
it ships. :)
