do you need that for wheezy? if not, I would like to go ahead and base this on binutils trunk, which should go into experimental. > (As for the other major toolchain components: glibc/eglibc will have to wait > for an upgrade for any x32 updates to be incorporated, as x32 support is only > available starting in 2.15.

I think the major will be the gcc packaging. maybe the mips triarch support can be reused (libn32XXX), but at a first glance the naming of the macros is tightly coupled with the package names itself.
