commit 5632ae46: "mips_malta: move i8259 initialization after piix4
initialization" broke the network on mips. It still comes up, but
doesn't pass packets.
Try this:
wget http://landley.net/aboriginal/bin/system-image-mips.tar.bz2
tar xvjf system-image-mips.tar.bz2
cd system-image-mips
./run-emulator.sh
[ wait for shell prompt ]
wget http://google.com
Under 0.15.1 it works, under 1.0 it doesn't. Identical binary. I
bisected it to the commit in question, it's still broken in -master.
