Re: Building syscall.h on mips

No, it's definitely wrong.  The header needs to have three sections, each 
one with the syscalls relevant to that particular ABI.  Those sets are 
similar, but not the same.  The MIPS build of this header was broken for a 
long time (see 
<http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2011-12/msg00046.html>).

If you can't get -m options working there, maybe it's necessary to use 
entirely -U and -D options in the -options variables - those options being 
such as to make the MIPS asm/unistd.h define the correct set of syscalls 
for each ABI.
