Description Ilya Volynets (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

N32 stages need to have CHOST set to mips64-linux and -mabi=n32 passed in CFLAGS.
This patch adds subarch mips4n32 to make n32 stages possible.

Of course - there still is a question of how to propperly handle multi-abi arches.
Creating #CPUs * #ABIs of subarch keywords doesn't seem like best thing.
Especially if you deal with thing like MIPS, which can also have any CPU run in
either BE or LE...
