I find binutil seems give up elf32-littlemips since 2.11.90.04
below is the release note excerpted from binutils
Changes from binutils 2.11.90.0.4:
1. Update from binutils 2001 0414.
2. Fix an ia64 assembler bug.
3. Change Linux/MIPS to use the SVR4 MIPS ABI instead of the IRIX ABI.
since there are no supports for the IRIX ABI in glibc. The current
Linux/MIPS targets are elf64-tradlittlemips for little endian MIPS
instead of elf32-littlemips and elf64-tradbigmips for big endian MIPS
instead of elf32-bigmips. Glibc, gcc and kernel may have to be modified
for this change.

BTW, I use buildroot to generate mips toolchain and the ld really
support elf32-tradlittlemips/elf32-tradbigmips.
I append the output of ld and configure at the end of letter.
My question is :
Is there any additional binutil options I have to set in ct-ng menuconfig?
appreciate your help,
miloody
