Wrong constants in LL code for big endian targets
I'm trying to compile GHC for a big endian MIPS target (MIPS 24Kc, Atheros AR9330). The generated code for the negateFloat function has the following line:
%ln3uf = fsub float 0x0000000000000080, %ln3ue
But the constant should be 0x8000000000000000 instead.
See todays discussion in #ghc between wereHamster and rwbarton for more details and possible hints how/where to fix this.
