I have just done another trunk and 2.10 merge to bring in my fix
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2009-08/msg00001.html
for this problem.  Unfortunately a patch was merged to FSF 2.10 branch 
which not only breaks the MIPS build but is such that it isn't 
particularly obvious that it would break ports builds.

I'm told that Ralf will be adding the accept4 syscall to the MIPS kernel 
(for all ABIs, I expect; this build issue is only for o32 as n32 and n64 
don't have socketcall so would just quietly produce ENOSYS for accept4) 
soon.
