I am ... not entirely sure how you'd do it in the absence of an
n32 target. Our binary prebuilt toolchain uses n32 for one of the
Octeon parts.

I think any tuning that uses n32 should illustrate the failure modes in
the previous setup, which are:

1. First thing you build that has target binaries errors out with QA
checks because you're making 32-bit binaries for mips64.
2. Anything that wants ncurses ends up thinking that ncurses.h doesn't
exist because ncurses.h is a symlink to curses.h, and curses.h is
renamed to curses-64.h, but the #include magic in the wrapper looks for
curses-n32.h.

Listen, get this.  Nobody with a good compiler needs to be justified.
