This is with qemu in little endian mode. Big endian works fine.
The configuration, the script to build and run the kernel, 
and the root file system used are are available at
https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test, in directory
rootfs/mipsel/. The log for the latest build failure is in
http://server.roeck-us.net:8010/builders/qemu-mipsel-next/builds/194/steps/qemubuildcommand/logs/stdio.

Hope this helps,
Guenter
