Fixing this bug, which effectively caused 0 to be emitted instead of
constants requiring more than one actual insn to generate (through the
base-plus-offset support, kind-of macro insns), i.e. like "LDA
$2,#0lx" instead of "LDA $2,#ffffffffff", gets rid of 193 of the
regressions from (some-early-time) I see for mmix-knuth-mmixware
(regress-234 to regress-41), vastly improving results, somewhat as
follows:

It also brings down build+test from (wall-clock) about 7:09:24 to
5:01:46 on a yesteryear x86_64-linux host, mostly from the 17
eliminated timeouts.  (BTW, that's on top of improvements from 9:18:00
that I get from changing the simulator, start-up-files and newlib
low-level support to instrument and optionally require memory to be
explicitly allocated rather than implicitly allocated on access; lots
of eliminated timeouts.  Bugs are also quite a bit easier to diagnose.
Still quite a bit too high; it should be more like 3:30.  I'll post
the mmix-sim.ch when I've diagnosed all of the fallout from those
changes as bugs previously hidden by implicit allocation, rather than
subtle bugs in the new machinery.)

There *are* fall-out regressions with this patch:
+FAIL: objc/execute/exceptions/matcher-1.m execution,  -O0 -fgnu-runtime
+FAIL: objc/execute/exceptions/matcher-1.m execution,  -O1 -fgnu-runtime
+FAIL: objc/execute/exceptions/matcher-1.m execution,  -O2 -fgnu-runtime
+FAIL: objc/execute/exceptions/matcher-1.m execution,  -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -fgnu-runtime
+FAIL: objc/execute/exceptions/matcher-1.m execution,  -O3 -g -fgnu-runtime
+FAIL: objc/execute/exceptions/matcher-1.m execution,  -Os -fgnu-runtime
but I'm just going to let that slide at the moment.  Not even sorry,
just happy that they're so few.  Before someone starts lecturing
me on knowingly introducing regressions, just don't.

There's also a bug in the assembler for letting "#0lx" through as "#0"
instead of erroring on the "lx".  Later.
Committed.

	* config/mmix/mmix.c (mmix_output_octa): Don't assume
	HOST_WIDEST_INT_PRINT_HEX starts with "0x".  Instead use
	HOST_WIDE_INT_PRINT_HEX_PURE, falling back to
	HOST_WIDEST_INT_PRINT_UNSIGNED.
