There is also another change that I considered:

At the end of my series, we have a lot of entries like

245     32      clock_settime                   sys_clock_settime32
245     64      clock_settime                   sys_clock_settime
245     spu     clock_settime                   sys_clock_settime

which could be folded into

245     32      clock_settime                   sys_clock_settime32
245     spu64 clock_settime                   sys_clock_settime

if we just add another option to the ABI field. Any thoughts on
that?
