Did you test this on target?
Do you have any idea why it wasn't enabled for mips before?

Thanks,

Not yet, but it should work.

Valgrind added support for MIPS on it's last release, 3.9.0:

http://sourceforge.net/p/valgrind/mailman/valgrind-announce/thread/52738DEF.1070801@acm.org/

But you already knew that. The following message is yours:

"One of the new features of Valgrind 3.9.0 is the addition of MIPS
support. Maybe it would be good to enable Valgrind on these
architectures. I'm adding Vincente and Markos in the Cc list, since
they are our main MIPS contributors. They might probably be interested
in doing this work, after testing on MIPS hardware."

I think you are confusing the two Thomas'es, but that's ok :-).

Thanks for your explanation...

Best regards,

This breaks the build on MIPS64:

Yeah, I sent a patch to upstream few weeks ago, and it was applied. I 
will send it to BR today.

Thanks for reminding me this problem.
