Hrmm... I wonder if this is an issue with the headers? Could you try a newer mips-headers or linux-headers package?
let me finish the update (--resume --skipfirst) and then I'll upgrade mips-headers. which one is being the 'default' by the way? linux-headers or mips-headers?
newer install a new kernel on a machine you don't have physical access to.. Nah.. now I have to get on the serial line.. ;-) I'm not getting next to the machine until next week. Will report back then.
I've got a feeling this is due to mips-headers stopping at 2.6.17, and us switching to linux-headers-2.6.19; and this rev of iproute2 only builds against 2.6.19 headers. I'll mask it and above in the 2007.0 profile, and leave it open in the newer ones.
Test and make sure the 2.6.16 one works for you. If you're feeling brave, switch your profile to the 2007.1-dev mips profile, unmerge mips-headers manually and merge linux-headers, then re-merge glibc (and make sure glibc does not try to pull mips-headers back in), then try the 2.6.19 iproute2. If all that works, rebuild your system (cause of the headers change) :)
