"Branch out of range" error when compiling to mips_64 with clang-4.0 #10
Description
I have successfully cross-compiled most of the gnu software following the workflow. However, for some of the software, "Branch out of range" error occurs when compiling to mips_64 with clang-4.0 (as well as clang-obfus-xxx).
For example, when compiling tar-1.30 with clang-4.0 (O0) to mips_64, it shows:
...

I have tried my best to google it but I haven't found any solution.
I wonder if you have encountered similar problem before and do you have suggestions to solve it？
