Hi Luc,

The typo in the subject made me curious...

What about the architectures not touched by your patch that previously
had no -m32/-m64? (arc, c6x, h8300, hexagon, m68k, microblaze, nds32,
nios2, openrisc, powerpc, riscv, s390, sh, unicore32, xtensa)

You forgot to CC them on this patch.

Have you really checked that all their toolchains support the -m32/-m64
flags you newly introduce for them? Apart from non-biarch architectures,
I'm thinking of 31-bit s390 as a corner case where !64 != 32.

Regards,
Andreas
