Major obstacle is the real time signal stuff, which is needed for
linuxthreads to work if reported kernel version is > 2.0.37.  pread,
pwrite, sigaltstack, vfork are supported and rest is not used too
frequently.

Oh well, I should really continue&finish the work on rtsig support
for NetBSD I've started some time ago, but other stuff keeps getting
into way :(

In other words, you can't bump the reported kernel version neither
globally nor for mips only, other stuff would break.
