Just to close this thread, I sent some patches earlier this week
to fix the build on MIPS using the more recent __atomic_*
functions from libatomic as they do have the 64-bit
implementations for MIPS that were missing for the __sync_*
functions (tested with gcc 8.3).  I've also just sent a patch to
enable Gitlab CI builds for MIPS, it's all passing:
