You need a 64 bit kernel to run a N32 userland.  Maybe not a N64 kernel but at least a N32 kernel.

The algorithmics P5064 already runs a mips64 kernel so the Qube could as well (since they share the same processor).  I can make cobalt support mips64 is an hour or two.  Is someone willing to test it?
