mips64 problems

Hi,

when building a buildroot based system for the target qemu-mips64-malta I get following output
generated:
wbx at neon:~/adk/buildroot $ ./output/host/usr/bin/mips64-linux-readelf -a output/target/bin/busybox |grep interpreter

lrwxr-xr-x  1 wbx  admin     21 Sep 26 14:25 output/target/lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 -> ld-uClibc-0.9.33.2.so

The problem is this line in Rules.mak:
ifneq ($(findstring  $(TARGET_ARCH) , hppa64 ia64 mips64 powerpc64 s390x sparc64 x86_64 ),)
UCLIBC_LDSO_NAME := ld64-uClibc
ARCH_NATIVE_BIT := 64
else
UCLIBC_LDSO_NAME := ld-uClibc
ARCH_NATIVE_BIT := 32
endif

TARGET_ARCH can not be set to mips64 via make menuconfig or any .config.
How is it supposed to work?

Would be the use of TARGET_SUBARCH a solution?
Something like that:

Any feedback is appreciated.
