From the Inquirer, http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=24882 (staff-written article):

China's Godson-2 CPU is a MIPS rip chip

But, said the firm in a report, the [Godson II] CPU, which is "95 per cent" MIPS compatible, raises questions about intellectual property. That's because it's an unauthorised re-make of the MIPS R10000.


Let's hope that any of these machines that travel past the Great Firewall have gcc tweaked for their CPU.
