It certainly _cares_, because it needs to know whether it's generating
32-bit or 64-bit code, but it supports both. And it doesn't make up
its own rules, it follows the psABI for the processor.

More info on what? The psABI or the fact that GCC uses it?

What exactly are you trying to find out? And why are you asking on the
libstdc++ list?
