/* GCC doesn't correctly implement the structure and union passing and return
conventions of the N32 and N64 ABIs on IRIX 6, as described in the
MIPSpro N32 ABI Handbook, ch. 2, Calling Convention Implementations, p.7.
The ABI requires that structures (or trailing parts of structures) smaller
than 8 bytes (a 64-bit register) are left-justified, whereas GCC
right-justifies them.
While GCC is internally consistent, calling routines compiled with a
compiler that does implement the documented ABI (like SGIs MIPSpro C
compiler) doesn't work. This is primarily an issue for system libraries
like libc. Fortunately, there exist only very few routines that take
structure value arguments or return structures by value, so until the
underlying bug is fixed, it is possible to work around it by providing
wrapper functions for the few affected routines that compensate for the
inconsistent alignment.
These wrappers rely on the fact that e.g. libc contains weak versions of
those routines, and the real implementation is provided by _-prefixed
variants. So we can provide our own versions, which will only be linked
if the application uses any of the affected functions, calling the private
variants after shifting the arguments or results as required.
This is a rewrite of code created by Andy Polyakov. */
