--- Comment #2 from Darren Salt <bugspam at moreofthesa.me.uk> ---
This code is intended to be generic; it SHOULD work for other pairs such as
armel and aarch64 (though breakage will happen should you have more than one
32-bit ARM ABI in use on one system). As such, as it's written, it should not
be testing __i386__, __x86_64__ or similar macros, but it does need to test
__ILP32__.

(Aside: x32 code is 64-bit.)

Without optimisation, yes, the testing is effectively at run-time; however, the
values are constant. So in that sense, it's a small amount of bloat and
unreachable code.

FWIW, my implementation (which uses the ABI name from the architecture triplet)
is here:
