I never used anything earlier than 3.3.0 on mips. Basic ffi call support
for mips existed in that version. We added ffi closures in 4.0 IIRC
(although I have back ported closures to 3.4 in my private tree). In GCC
4.0 and later ffi is fully supported for the MIPS o32 ABI (which
includes mipsel-linux). The glibc version is irrelevant as far as I know.
