It's a long story, but it's been talked about for several years now. It was
retained
in the tree 18 months ago when it was last discussed to allow a large
customer
to migrate to from doing their research on MIPS to arm and riscv. I have a
branch
in my repo locally to remove it and hope to post the review in the coming
days.
If things go well, it will be gone by the end of the month. I'd planned on
keeping
mips on in the bsd-user fork until we hit a point when it was too much work
to
keep it going, but that time came much sooner than I expected.
