Description Guillaume Emont (guijemont) 2014-03-03 12:51:19 UTC 
The mips back end of Orc does not support variables of more than 4 bytes. Yet, some GStreamer elements use Orc with scripts that have variables of 8 bytes. This means that Orc would fall back to a generic back end, and an error message like the one below would get printed:

  ORC: ERROR: orcprogram-mips.c(151): orc_compiler_orc_mips_init(): 
  unhandled variable size 8

Would be great to have. but 4 years without activity or patches isn't helpful. Closing. Please re-open if a patch is available.
