debug/ltrace: fix building for mips

ltrace 0.5.3 currently fails to build for target mips because MY_TARGET
(introduced by patches/ltrace/0.5.3/150-allow-configurable-arch.patch)
is set to 'mips' via CT_ARCH, while the mips specific stuff in ltrace
(0.5.3) is stored under sysdeps/linux-gnu/mipsel:

result: *** No rule to make target `mips/arch.h', needed by `sysdep.h'.
Stop.

The following patch fixes this issue

     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
