So, it seems this issue is not as simple as I thought. :(

Opinion seem to be somewhat divided, but in the absence of any sort of 
consensus, I suppose I'll have to propose that the various projects use 
the vendor field.

The alternative would be to add a configure test that checked the 
defaults in the existing host compiler, and duplicated the defaults 
somehow, but that sounds somewhat icky.
