Thank you.  It works fine for a cross mipsel-kfreebsd-gnu target.
I'll ask freebsd-mips community to test it for mips*-freebsd as well.

Btw, I did not dare submit a patch, because I have no way to test
it, but I suspect the following kludge in gas/config/tc-mips.c:

#ifdef TE_VXWORKS
      if (!HAVE_64BIT_OBJECTS && !HAVE_NEWABI)
        return (target_big_endian
                ? "elf32-bigmips-vxworks"
                : "elf32-littlemips-vxworks");
#endif

was added to solve the same problem we had with
TE_FreeBSD, and that your solution (ELF_TARGET macro)
can also be used for TE_VXWORKS case.

Best regards
