  Makefile.inc1:325 > Why wouldn't we need it for sparc64 if we removed ld and gcc?
  
  We would. I was originally planning require users to set CROSS_BINUTILS_PREFIX in order to make use of this, but Andy wanted it to be automatic.
  
  Do you have a sketch of something that would be a more generic way to do it?
  share/mk/src.opts.mk:233-238 I don't fully understand your comment here - if I understand correctly you're saying we should forcibly disable options that can't work on a given platform, not just disable them by default.
  
  Both binutils and gdb are the same in that regard at least, they both lack aarch64 support.
