As reported on port-mips, there are some serious reloc problems with the new
toolchain.  (This is why it is not enabled by default on mipseb/mipsel.  :)

This is being worked on, but I don't think there is a direct fix just yet.
There were some fixes added to make mipseb work, but it broke the ABI, and
this is also being worked on....
