Well then, should we not revisit commits c3dd823 and 7bfd5ee, which
enable CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC for sh and mips respectively? Either
we allow it by default for all architectures, or we forbid it by
default for all architectures, but I don't like the idea of a
heterogeneous per-arch default setting.
