Thanks for the review. I'll commit with the changes you
request if everything else passes review.

I'd rather keep as few local patches as possible. Those patches
correspond to old multilib options (required for correct
function). Maintenance would get harder than necessary if the
FSF releases do not recognize the same main port options as old
Axis releases. I don't see how removing these options can make
FSF gcc maintenance proportionally easier.
