 There must be something wrong with your setup, or maybe a bug somewhere 
in our build machinery you just happened to trigger.  Most of us routinely 
use a cross-compiler to build the kernel and you're the first one to 
report the problem.

 Can you report the compiler invocation that has lead to this error?  
Have you used a default config or a custom one?

 You're not supposed to require a header in asm/ merely to include a 
header of the same name from uapi/asm/ as there are normally 
-I./arch/mips/include and -I./arch/mips/include/uapi options present both 
at once, in this order, on the compiler's invocation line.  So:

#include <asm/auxvec.h>

will pull the header from uapi/asm/ if none is present in asm/.
