* MIPS R3000/TX39xx: 32-bit MIPS-II generation, mostly superseded by
  64-bit MIPS-III (R4000 and higher) starting in 1991. arch/mips still
  supports these in DECstation and Toshiba Txx9, but it appears that most
  of those machines are of the 64-bit kind. Later MIPS32 such as 4Kc and
  later are rather different and widely used.
I have a (32-bit) RBTX4927 development board in my board farm, boot-test
every bi-weekly renesas-drivers release on it, and fix kernel issues
when they appear.
Right, I was specifically thinking of the MIPS-II/R3000 ones here, I know
there are users on multiple actively maintained MIPS-III platforms.
Maciej still runs R3k based machines.
