That would be great.  However, let us try with crosstool first. We
haven't actually tried using crosstool to build a mips cross compiler.
For a start, do we need mips or mipsel?  (My tame minion is trying to
build both now.  :-))  Our host arch is powerpc64.

Of course, we have much more incentive to do mips builds if the mips tree
is in linux-next.  HINT! HINT! :-)
