due to the removal of the mips packages, binutils, cross-toolchain-base,
gcc-8-cross, gcc-9-cross and gcc-defaults need to migrate together.  The
combination of linux-libc-dev (<< 5.2) and linux-libc-dev (>= 5.2) leads to
build failures for some cross compilers, so all the -ports packages should
migrate as well.

Blockers:
