Ok, this sounds like a missing patch. Searching for it, it looks like
the patches didn't make it in the main linux kernel. I'll contact the
author.

looking at stable, we have openoffice.org built on mipsel. We are
about to investigate into the build issues in unstable - but this is a
relativly new topic, up to now libreoffice used to build on the
swarms. Also here, whoever wants to help is more than welcome to do
so.

Finding that issue and fixing it would be really appreciated. We
should have all software within Debian working on the 2f machines out
of the box.
