When compiling for MIPS, gcc lets you specify the size of ints and longs. This is always true for gcc, at least internally, even though they don't always reveal an interface for you to choose. Still it's not very useful since all code that will be linked together has to agree on the sizes of types.

MIPS cores come in many varieties, so it makes sense having the size of types selectable. Obviously you would use the same options for the entire system.
