	* src/mips/n32.S: Put '#ifdef linux' around '.abicalls' and '.eh_frame'

broke the N64 libffi.so build on mips-sgi-irix6.5:

ld64: FATAL   45 : Non-PIC (src/mips/.libs/n32.o) used in shared/call_shared link.
collect2: ld returned 4 exit status
make[7]: *** [libffi.la] Error 1

.abicalls was introduced in 2005 to fix just that error (PR
libgcj/21943).  I'm now checking for __GNUC__ instead of linux here,
since GCC on IRIX 5/6 requires gas, which supports both, and Linux uses
gas anyway.

The patch allowed the bootstrap to continue.

Ok for mainline?

Yes, thanks.
