Anyone at Mips care to comment on why the user documentation set
contains the STREAMS programmer's guide but omits the language and
compilers guide (where the debugger is documented!).  Last I checked,
Mips was still shipping a C compiler and dbx standard with their systems,
and I think that there is a marginally wider interest in that sort of
stuff than in STREAMS programming.

Having to fork off $$$ to get a manual for such basic information
as using the debugger and tips to write efficient code seems absurd.
