Is MIPS really a problem?  The value is 0x80.  128 protocol types should
be enough.  Even if not, there is no reason why the numbers should be
consecutive.  It's easy enough to skip over a bit.  I.e., after procotol
0x7f the next one would be 0x100.

And PA seems to have gotten O_NONBLOCK wrong.  SPARC does it right AFAICS.
