We'll apply the patch to the sid branch and merge it into 2.23. I have one global comment about it though. Do we need to keep multilib with the 3 ABI? It makes MIPS toolchain painfully slow to build and nowadays the same can be achieved with multiarch (or even with the plain old chroots). The same way should we really add support for n32? We have more and more issues to solve on 32-bit machines due to the limited address space, so if the host supports 64-bit instructions, we should go to full 64 bits.
