After testing on my machine I can confirm that under x86_64 the compiler
defaults to 64 bit code, even if the BUILD flag is unset.

I think it prevents linking 32 bit code for the embedded system in
future. But I assumed that was already out when --disable-multilib was
passed to the binutils configure.
