(a) There is nothing MIPS-specific about the issue, a fix must be
architecture-independent, arranging that on all architectures that
__SIZE_TYPE__ agrees with the internal size_t without the fragility of
specs.
(b) It is well-established that __SIZE_TYPE__ is a macro, not a typedef,
expanding to the normal C name of the relevant type. This is, for
example, relied on in the format checking tests to determine the
corresponding signed type. Did your patch pass c99-scanf-1.c?
