I guess I could, but I'm not convinced that's the right thing to do.
Ideally problems with distro-specific configs would cause loud
failures (like this one) and result in fixes like the changes being
made to upstream clang/gcc.
Simply unconditionally disabling distro configs seems to be the wrong
way to approach this and makes it less likely that future problems
will be reported in the first place.
