Re: mips64-elf-binutil fails to build

You should generally read the AUR page first and the first comment not by you mentions a regression in curl which needs to get fixed for the used commands to work correctly.

The issue with curls's FTP support should be worked around with https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … 24fa46f186 switching to HTTP.
