</div>Cross compiling pypy is a bit hairy because PyPy (at translation time)<br>
queries underlaying Python enviroment for some details. You might be<br>
able to get rid of that, but it's a bit of work. We're here to help<br>
though. And no, there are no cross-compiler tools I'm aware of.<br>
<br>

<div>There is bit of documentation about using it in the ARM branch at <a href="https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/arm-backend-2/pypy/doc/arm.rst" target="_blank">https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/src/arm-backend-2/pypy/doc/arm.rst</a></div>
<div>Maybe the information there is helpful for MIPS.</div>
