I thought I had sent back a response asking what the patch was actually
supposed to do since it didn't include that information.

Apparently that's not the case :-)

What might be better is to set "target_cpu_default" in configure.in
then remove the TARGET_CPU_DEFAULT definitions.

That way you don't have to override TARGET_DEFAULT.

Any reason not to do that?

[ In general, using target_cpu_default from configure.in is meant to
  try and simplify and reduce the complexity and number of target
  files. ]
