What's going on here is that we use ISA_MIPS32 bogusly (using it at
all is bad enough, but...) namely we use it to determine whether to
link in the relevant bits of libkern.  I'm not sure what the best
thing to do is.  I've thought about creating a .c file that includes
the libkern bits depending on the ABI that's being used, so that we
can get config out of the business of handling this.

In short: your config probably lacks and should have (even though it's
actually wrong) options ISA_MIPS32.
