mips has it own private gen-asm-offset macro,

The important part being:

sed -ne "/^@@@/s///p"; \

compared to the generic one:

sed -ne "/^->/{s:^->\([^ ]*\) [\$$#]*\([^ ]*\) \(.*\):#define \1 \2 /* \3 */:; s:->::; p;}"; \

I wonder why the assembly for mips is so different...
So for now two architectures needs special care: mips and ia64.
