Everyone --
Just to raise your attention, IRIX support removal is being discussed
across GNU toolchain mailing lists right now with the likely outcome of a
go-ahead very soon, especially as support for the OS itself has been
recently withdrawn by SGI and also toolchain maintainers have no access to
IRIX machines anymore. So if there's anyone among you who in addition to
being keen on Linux for the MIPS platform is also an IRIX enthusiast and
would like to keep the platform alive in the GNU toolchain, now's about
time to speak up and step in as the maintainer.

My understanding is that IRIX was already removed from gcc two years ago,
deprecated in 4.7 and removed in 4.8:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2012-03/msg00067.html
Not sure about binutils -- links to the mailing lists in question?
