mips/mips.h bug with WCHAR_TYPE?

[Billinghurst, David (CRTS)]

This patch has been tested on mips-sgi-irix6.5 for the 3.0 branch.  It
eliminates 33 gcc testsuite failures with -mabi=64.  Can someone please
approve it and check it in.  It should also be applied to the mainline too,
but I haven't tested that.
