These instructions were written before the PIE patch so they should work even
with older version GDB. Still I do not have experience with this part.
The errors like
"Cannot access memory at address 0x32a14"
for debugging glibc-related stuff got fixed by the PIE patch for me (x86*).

The basic functionality is in FSF GDB HEAD now, maybe you can add just:
[patch] Fix PIE for 64bit gdb -> 32bit inferior
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2010-02/msg00289.html
(unaware of your MIPS setup)

Thanks,
