Is that a valid prefix?  I was thinking hppa32 might be, but hppa2.0 is
supposed to be hppa-xxx with -mpa-risc-2-0.

But anyway, I think being clever and removing unused stuff is likely
orthogonal to the first patch which is just making it all work.

Actually, I misspoke, it was your suggestion in the first thread.

It can't be done ... defined but empty is different from not defined in
makefiles (ifdef or ?= only checks for not defined).  CROSS_COMPILE gets
automatically defined by the top level Makefile ... that's why we need a
check for empty not a check for not defined.
