The only bug I found was in one of the tests.  I think it was computing the 
MD5 hash of something.  The answer was wired in as a constant.  The constant 
was byte swapped, but that worked out OK on little endian because the htonl 
was missing so it didn't get unswapped.

If your mips64 is big endian, it should have found it.  Maybe the buildbot 
doesn't look hard enough.
