Re: OpenBSD/loongson hardware platform retired

#2
From the commit:

    The last compiler update unfortunately does not work on mips64el, with clang 22
    built with clang 19 being apparently functional, but clang 22 rebuilt with
    the previous clang 22 hitting deterministic SIGSEGV on various files.
Some real trusting-trust smell here.

It's disappointing that the reaction to a clear case of a compiler bug is just to give up.
