ar and ld get confused if they are not set. For some reason, it can't decide which binary format to use. It may be a binutils bug, but I was trying to not have to dig into that package and create a dependency on a specific patch level of yet another package.If that's true it is a binutils bug. Ar and ld (are supposed to) default to use the format of the first input object as output format. But I wonder why "GNUTARGET = elf64-trad*mips" works for n32 then, it would need elf32-ntrad*mips in that case.
Sorry, it was ar/ranlib (probably not ld) that had the problem. Here is
the failure without the GNUTARGET workaround.
