	* mips_pro.exp: Accept either "middle -> top -> main" or
	"middle -> main" in the backtrace, because gcc can optimize
	tail calls to jumps.  Remove setup_xfail for the hppa case.
	Add a comment with the original warning messages from PR 3016,
	which was filed in 1993, to preserve them for posterity.
