I think you need to heed the warning here..I don't think you are
supposed to use --host here. It makes it look like you are compiling
on the mipsel box itself...the target is mipsel but the host (the
machine you are building on) is x86 (or x86_64)...thus, it will try
and run the executable it generates on the box you are on...if you
omit the --host it will not try to run the executable because it knows
you are cross-compiling

Hopefully I am not mistaken....its been a while since I have
cross-compiled something
