These will fail unless the floating-point types have exceptions and 
rounding modes support, which soft-float does not.

This indicates you have done something wrong when building or testing 
EGLIBC or that there is something wrong with your environment, and you 
will have to debug it yourself.

This test requires at least 300MB of memory and does not check properly 
for out-of-memory conditions.

They are not in the least suspicious.  It's simply that MIPS ELF has 
various differences from other platforms, and my workaround

        * elf/dl-reloc.c (_dl_relocate_object): Do not try to allocate
        array using DT_PLTRELSZ if ELF_MACHINE_NO_PLT.

is no longer effective after the non-PIC ABI changes.
