Why is it the right thing to combine the type info into a 32bit word?
It will never get used as such for MIPS ELF64. I would have expected
something like:

#define ELF64_MIPS_R_INFO(sym,ssym,t3,t2,t1)		\
{(							\
	_Elf64_Mips_R_Info info = {			\
		.r_sym = sym,				\
		.r_ssym = ssym,				\
		.r_type3 = t3,				\
		.r_type2 = t2,				\
		.r_type1 = t1,				\
	}						\
	(Elf64_Xword)info;				\
)}

without a corresponding ELF64_MIPS_R_TYPE, and then:

	if (hdr->e_ident[EI_CLASS] == ELFCLASS64
	    && hdr->e_machine == EM_MIPS) {
		_Elf64_Mips_R_Info info = (_Elf64_Mips_R_Info)r.r_info;
		r.r_info = ELF64_MIPS_R_INFO(TO_NATIVE(info.r_sym),
					     info.r_ssym, info.r_type3,
					     info.r_type2, info.r_type1);
	}
