My proposal for the libgcc runtime ABI (ia64 gcc/glibc is broken.)

It'll take more than these two to convince me that we need multilibs on
natives.  Alpha can just as well use -mieee as the default build for
libgcc.so.  The sparc64 variants are used for sizing the memory model,
which is a non-issue if we put the thing in a DSO.
