[fpc-devel] MIPS

[Pierre Free Pascal]

  I had a MIS related question:

  using fullcycle I got a warinng about
defdynlinker not being initialized fro mips in systems/t_linux.pas unit.

Is this a correct fix, 
Index: t_linux.pas
===================================================================
--- t_linux.pas (révision 17859)

+     defdynlinker:='/lib/ld-linux.so';
+{$endif mips}
      {
        Search order:
          glibc 2.1+


or can somoeone tell us what the default linker is for a mips linux
machine?
