What version of binutils are you using?  I believe the latter error
should be fixed by commit 842dfc11ea9a ("MIPS: Fix build with binutils
2.24.51+"), but perhaps the decompressor Makefile requires a fix as
well?  Unfortunately I'm traveling for the next couple of days, but I
may be able to take a look at it on Monday.
