I think `libomp` should work, but not for GPU offloading with `libomptarget` as none of the offloading plugins target MIPS. I guess my understanding is that the compiler will typically emit both `HASH` and `GNU_HASH` sections and we previously used the old `DT_HASH` because it was simpler. We could probably switch over to using the GNU version and it would still work. I still feel like if this works already we may as well support this function for both `DT_HASH` and `DT_GNU_HASH`, but you're obviously more qualified to make that judgement.
