sys-kernel/mips-sources is sort of an experimental playground. I
wouldn't recommend using it unless it includes a patch you
specifically need.

For the O2, I would just use gentoo-sources or vanilla-sources. The
kernel that I built for you was just from Linus' git tree. The config
I used for it is http://dev.gentoo.org/~mattst88/sgi-o2/config
