It seems not to be your problem, but your arguments are not entirely 
correct (and it "works" just by accident). BINUTILSPREFIX is *only* the 
prefix of the binaries, in your case "mips-linux-". The path must be 
passed as CROSSBINDIR like so: 
CROSSBINDIR=/home/dennis/toolchains/staging_dir_mips/bin
And did you choose the correct endianess? Aka CPU_TARGET=mipsel or 
CPU_TARGET=mipseb?

Maybe you could try to fiddle around with the arguments passed to 
mips-linux-as by hand. This means take the command below and try to get 
the prt0.as file to assemble:

/home/dennis/toolchains/staging_dir_mips/bin/mips-linux-as -32 -mips32 
-EB -o /home/dennis/fpc/2.7.1/rtl/units/mips-linux/prt0.o mips/prt0.as

(current directory should be /home/dennis/fpc/2.7.1/rtl/linux )
