It's not obvious to me whether _MIPS_ISA_MIPS32 is defined:
- iff o32 or n32 is used
- only if n32 is in use

I had something like this in mind:

> +#define _MIPS_ISA_MIPS32 6  /* Defined for code that uses o32.  */
> +#define _MIPS_ISA_MIPS64 7  /* Defined for code that uses n64.  */

Or are my comments wrong?  Then you know why they're needed ;-)
