This seems questionable to me.  It may currently be the case that N32
and O32 are more common, but that is unlikely to remain the case for
much longer.

Is there any way to specify the N64 ABI for MIPS?

Please disregard this message.  I should have looked at the patch and
not just the commit log.  Apologies for the wasted bandwidth.

There’s *-gnuabi64 as shown in one of these commits, though it’s up to
the tools to interpret it as we want (GCC, Binutils, Guile, etc.)

Currently, it seems that GCC & co. don’t support it (GCC has a
‘--with-abi’ configure flag.)
