AFAIK no, it does not. Because sysv is enabled for MIPS by default.

[[
.gnu.hash wants .dynsym to be sorted in such a way that symbols with the same
hash value are grouped together, whereas with the MIPS ABI, symbols that don't
have GOT entries must come before symbols that do.  The .dynsym entries for
the latter group must also have the same order as the corresponding GOT entries.
