   Could someone please mail me the m-xxx.h and s-xxx.h config files for a
   MIPSCo M/120 running RISC/os (UMIPS) 4.0. I have GNU Emacs 18.53.

   Thanks in advance

i was able to derive m- and s- files for the m/120, and was able to
make the other necessary mods (due largely to the fact that RISC/os is
sys5 but _very_ close to berkeley).  in addition, for some reason, the
mips has crt1.o instead of crt0.o which requires also requires a change.

this got things to the point where the load succeeds, but temacs
crashes.  i suspect that this is because crt1.o really is different
and that we need a hack to crt0.c in the src directory.

interestingly the machine was shipped with a working emacs (18.51 i
think) so SOMEBODY has the required hacks somewhere.
