+# We use -minterlink-mips16 so that the non-MIPS16 libraries can still be
+# linked against partly-MIPS16 code.  The -mcode-readable=pcrel option allows
+# MIPS16 libraries to run on Harvard-style split I/D memories, so long
+# as they have the D-to-I redirect for PC-relative loads.  -mno-gpopt
+# has two purposes: it allows libraries to be used in situations where
+# $gp != our _gp, and it allows them to be built with -G8 while
+# retaining link compatibility with -G0 and -G4.

+# We do not default to -Os like mt-sde does, users who want that can configure
+# with --enable-target-optspace.
