I've invested some time into adding the mips64(el) backend. It gets
quite far (xgcc seems to be fine), but then our ld takes a dump:

/usr/bin/ld: Please report this bug.

Others have run into this, and it's possibly fixed in newer binutils,
but I have not been able to make sense of the BFD guts enough to fix ld.
Question is, should I commit this in its current form so others can try
their luck? I'm pretty sure this patch is 95% there.
Yes, please.
