Whilst I agree with changing our own definitions & filenames to use n64, this macro actually reflects naming used by the toolchain. ie:
$ mips-linux-gcc -mips64 -mabi=64 -dM -E - </dev/null | grep ABI64 #define _ABI64 3 #define _MIPS_SIM _ABI64
Our macro here is used to compare against _MIPS_SIM provided by the toolchain, so for consistency I think we should keep the same name for the macro that the toolchain uses.
And I realise that undoing that but keeping n64 in our own filenames & macros is another type of inconsistency, but something imperfect is unavoidable at this point given that the engineers way back when decided to use "ABI64" for n64.
Thanks, Paul
