Exactly, which is why I'm suggesting you check the specs file for the
stage1 compiler, which is generated by the information in the headers in
gcc/config/mips/

I've checked myself, and it seems that for mips, it does not set this in
the specs file, it depends on the linker scripts. My suggestion, upgrade
to the latest binutils. Also read the notes about the mips linker script
changes from HJ, as I'm quite sure this relates to the problem you are
having (the -m name has changed). It's possible that making some
symlinks in /usr/lib/ldscripts/ will do the trick.
