It looks like the default configuration for MIPS is for 
arch_minimum_kernel=2.4.0 and __ASSUME_AT_PAGESIZE is only defined for 
2.4.1 or later, so this would change things for anyone configuring without 
--enable-kernel.  Support for anything before 2.6 isn't exactly *useful* 
with current glibc given that NPTL is the only threading implementation 
available; should we increase arch_minimum_kernel for MIPS to 2.6.0 or 
greater before putting this patch in?
