   What is the unique preprocessor symbol used in BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS to
   distinguish true MIPS machines from all others (e.g., DECstations).

Arrgh, yes. I'd like to follow this up by begging the Mips folks to
define a Mips Co. specific preprocessor symbol in their compilation
environment. The current situation is a minor nightmare for any site
with more than one type of mips-cpu based machine.

Our local X11R4 port uses "umips".
