This symptoms here look very much like those in the DT_MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL
bug from #818909. If "mpic++" simply calls g++ with some extra args (ie
doesn't do anything to the executable after ld has touched it), then I
think binutils is the likely culprit here.
I'm not sure why it only happens on mips64el though (instead of all 3
mips arches).
[sigh, I swear we didn't use to have this many bugs in the mips toolchain]
Thanks,
James
