I don't think glibc 2.3.5 worked for mips64. But I haven't checked it
in a long time. Try CVS HEAD of glibc instead.
Other than that, you're on your own - building glibc is extremely error
prone.
I'm thiking this is more a possible oddity/bug in the kernel. It may be glibc
related, but I'm no concrete interpreter of strace output.
That said, I tried geoman's conftest.c snippet in an o32/glibc userland,
n32/glibc userland, and o32/uclibc userland just to see if there was any difference.
The commonalities between all three was something is happening with
rt_siguspend/sys32_rt_siguspend. In o32/glibc and o32/uclibc, calls to
rt_sigsuspend returned EINTR (interrupted system call). o32 itself generates a
silent SIGBUS (only seen in strace output. o32/uclibc seems to complete
(reaches exit(0)), but its rt_sigsuspend calls were also returning EINTR.
n32/glibc was the one that generates the Oops message (w/o locking the system up).
The only differences was that o32/glibc and n32/glibc both SIGBUS/SIGSEG, while
o32/uclibc seems to complete. This could point to a glibc problem.
Below is the snipped output from strace and ksymoops on n32 (cause strace
doesn't seem to work in n32 yet):
