You are wrong. The define "mips" is set when you are compiling a FPC 
that supports "mips" no matter what platform you run on. The CPU defines 
that are defined when crosscompiling are prefixed with "CPU". So the 
define for checking whether you are running on MIPS is "CPUMIPS".

My personal assumption regarding the linker: it might be ok to use the 
normal Linux ones.
