mips64 is a 64-bit target which i686 is a 32-bit target. In general
the names of the files in libgcc are always based on 32-bit targets,
but the function names are based on twice the size of a register word.

Because mips64 has the ddivu instruction which implements unsigned
DImode division directly.
