Thanks for the report.  Now, the kernel interface is what it is supposed
to be so you patch was unacceptable.  Instead I've sent below patch to
to the libc maintainers for inclusion.  Also for semaphores we also had
a structure missmatch.

Yet again it's amazing how long systems can apparently work reliable with
such capital bugs ...

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/bits/sem.h: Make structure definitions
	match the kernel definitions.
	sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/bits/ipc.h: Likewise.
	sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/bits/shm.h: Likewise.
