[kaffe] patch for kaffe1.0.7jit3 code runing on MIPS

[Dalibor Topic]

Hi Yoshiharu,

thank you very much for your patch! Could you post a changelog entry, 
describing the changes in each file, as well? That would make the review 
much easier :)

As for libffi patches, you may want to check out the latest gcc sources, 
and send your patch to gcc developers for inclusion into libffi.

The regression test results were obtained with jit3? That would be very 
nice.

Thanks! One more question: have you looked at Sun's code, decompiled it, 
  or signed an NDA that would prevent you from contributing the code to 
kaffe? I have to ask :)
