This is not a buildd issue but a porting issue. debian-mips@ldo is better for
this. Added to Cc.

IIRC there are some flags you can pass to reduce memory usage. Most notably
ggc-min-expand (which is going to be changed in GCC itself, but afaik it hasn't
happened yet). So you could try adding

--param ggc-min-expand=10

to CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS.

I'd try that before thinking about removing the package from mips.
