You can try to set XORG_OS_SUBDIR=stub in configure to disable md
specific code and see if there are other issues.
Although I'm not sure if this will produce a server that can interact
with the hardware in any meaningful way.

Otherwise you need to add NetBSD/mips specific bits to configure and
hw/xfree86/os-support/bsd to make this work. It should only be minor
bits that are missing.

Kind regards,
