Joel, I'm seeing similar problems on NetBSD/mips (NetBSD/pmax 1.6.2 to
be precise).

The last three lines in this patch suggest AFAICS to use
mips_elf_text_section_ptr instead of bfd_get_section_by_name,
and to make the test conditional on SGI_COMPAT. The SHN_MIPS_DATA
below should probably get handled similiarily.
Well, mips_elf_text_section_ptr doesn't really exist.
