I can give you the flags I use to compile for ARM Android, you'll have to 
modify them for mips.  Didn't know there was any Android for mips, presume 
some third-party fork.

--disable-static --enable-shared --
sysroot=${ANDROID_NDK}/platforms/android-8/arch-arm --arch=arm --target-
os=linux --cross-prefix=${ANDROID_NDK}/toolchains/arm-linux-
androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi- --disable-
symver --cc="/usr/bin/ccache ${ANDROID_NDK}/toolchains/arm-linux-
androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc" --
enable-small

There are also some minor modifications needed to the source, but those are 
for ARM assembler and so shouldn't be needed for you.
