Does anybody know how to setup such compiler?
Created attachment 171601 [details] emerge --info and 4 log files
See bug #233233
Thanks Manuel, but i don't understand what should i do to make mips tools should i patch binutils? or patch crossdev to pass some flag when buildin binutils? or just use another version of binutils?

A quick fix is to stop binutils from applying patch "77_all_generate-gnu-hash.patch". Re-emerge binutils, stop the build (ctrl-z) when configure is running, cd into the builddir, unapply the offending patch and resume.
the suggested procedure appears too difficult for me, i think i will hack the relevant ebuild instead thanks
failed to patch binutils eclass, failed to stop-resume emerge, failed to find official docs on emerge stop-resume, managed to copy the single affected file when patching was over and configure was running mipsel toolset compiled ok and produces executables //and SimIT-MIPS does not understand them at all, i tried all arch=mips* variants Is quickly-copy-original-version-of-file-while-configure-is-running a valid fix?If yes then this bug is closed
Please gentlemen - this is a bug tracker and not a support forum.
