OK.  I think the SH1 check should be left out completely in this case.
If it is included, the default configuration (-m1 -mb) will fail to build
e.g. newlib.  I'd propose catching the SH2A case only, considering the user's
default -mb / -ml configuration.  If somebody configures the default to be -m2a
-ml then it will fail to build, but I guess only very few people will try to do
that anyway.
