That's unlikely to fix this issue.

I did a bit more debugging - adding a
  puts("DONE");
right before the exit(0)/exit(1) calls results in

(sid_mips64el-dchroot)anbe at eller:~/rmysql/mariadb-connector-c-2.3.1/obj-mips64el-linux-gnuabi64$ ./mariadb_config/mariadb_config --socket
/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
DONE
DONE
run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
�
 

so this may not be directly mariadb_config's fault, but perhaps a libc or compiler problem on that platform.
Please contact the mips64el porters to help with debugging.
