detect special mips64le dwarf2 line number length encoding

The code that was put in to detect the special 64-bit format used by
IRIX (and mips64-linux-gnu) fails in little-endian mode, since what it
reads as the length is actually the lower 32-bit word, that is quite
likely non-zero.  This patch makes the test a bit more inclusive, such
that it can do the detection in little-endian mode.  I hope the
assumption is reasonable.  Ok to install?
