Since front ends can't be enabled or disabled on a per-multilib basis, if
you want to support any x86/x86_64 GNU/Linux configuration you need to
support all of them here (and possibly disable runtime libraries for
particular multilibs). That is, this should be *more* general and also
allow i[[3456789]]86-*-linux* because that can have a -m64 multilib.
