For fun, I tried to build linux-mips64el-zero-fastdebug, and it cannot be built, because linker complains:

/usr/lib/gcc-cross/mips64el-linux-gnuabi64/6/../../../../mips64el-linux-gnuabi64/bin/ld: .gnu.hash is incompatible with the MIPS ABI
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I believe it is a regression in 16, as GNU hash style was forced with JDK-8200738.

Dropping --hash-style=gnu makes mips64el build pass:

...so we should probably special-case this for MIPS. I see some glibc work is being done to support gnu hash style for MIPS, but meanwhile it would be nice not to break the MIPS builds.
