This week I created a patch for capstone. It didn't compile because one of the 
compiler's macro definitions under mips has the same name as a field in a 
union. As a result the field's name got replaced with the value of the macro 
which happened to be a number and this lead to compilation error. I fixed this 
by undefining the compiler definiton in the Makefile. I made sure that it was 
never used in the source. This should fix the problem for both mips and mipsel 
although I don't have a mipsel machine to test the compilation on it.

Some of the packages I previously worked on proved hard to fix so I left them 
for the moment and started working on other packages.

I spend some time working on the package openni. It has a lot of 
architecture-specific code but only for x86, x86_64 and arm. This package can 
not compile on MIPS.

I also worked on the package acpica-unix. However it does not support big 
endian systems so it can not compile on MIPS.
