Not very well, I'm afraid. MIPS support was achieved by a lot of duplication and enclosing MIPS-related support to ifdefs. When I made changes across ltrace to support tracing multi-threaded processes and more recently tracing of DSOs, I attempted to keep MIPS (and PPC, which was similar in this respect) unbroken, but frankly I doubt that it works today. PPC needed some fixes, and MIPS may need them as well. A lot of that duplication was weeded out of ltrace these days, by inventing new back end hooks that capture the necessary logic. So when MIPS is fixed, it stands a better chance of surviving unrelated changes, if they respect the back end API. I want to look into MIPS in particular (it's not the first time that it was mentioned on this list), but first I'll focus on making revamp branch merge-able again, and then on s390's and ARM back ends.
