When the merging of the libffi3 branch took place in March, it broke  
the logic in configure and fficonfig.py.in to deal with MIPS  
architecture, specifically differentiating in which files to include  
for MIPS_IRIX versus MIPS_LINUX. I've re-added that logic based on the  
older code, and adjusted a few things to deal with the new format.

I just tested this on my QEMU instance of a MIPSEL Linux install, and  
works successfully. Before, it died with the error noted here: http://bugs.python.org/issue4305 
, when attempting to reference a non-existent array member in  
fficonfig.py.in, for the MIPS target. (Rather than MIPS_LINUX or  
MIPS_IRIX, like the file wants)

I've attached the patch here and on the following bug. It's based off  
the following svn checkout:
