 How is the MIPS port different from other dual-wordsize ones, such as 
RISC-V?

 Can you just grep .config resulting for 32BIT/64BIT and assign the build 
accordingly?

 One target toolchain will handle both, so there is no need to know that 
in advance of `make randconfig' invocation (one advantage of not linking 
libgcc.a or any other target libraries is there's no need for multilibs).
