[PATCH] [MIPS] Improve interlinking error message

[Catherine Moore]

I'm going to commit this version:

Direct jumps between ISA modes are not allowed; consider recompiling 
with interlinking enabled.

As Maciej mentioned, the microMIPS port is affected by the text of the 
error message.

Thanks,
Catherine
