base_machine *is* used, to set base-machine in config.make. But the only
things that's used for now are (mach/Makefile for powerpc and) libc-abis
handling (regarding which see
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00375.html>) - and
whatever the libc-abis handling does or does not work for, there is no use
in a special setting of base_machine for mips64; just setting to mips for
all MIPS cases seems most appropriate and consistent with other
architectures.
