thanks

Hello,

This bug is because inkscape is hitting a limit on the size of symbol tables
on these archs, and current versions of the toolchain error out such
circumstances (previous toolchain versions would silently truncate the
symbol table).

The attached patch switches inkscape's build from multigot symbol tables
(the default on mips and mipsel) to the more extensible xgot format.

Thanks,
