it may only be particularly convenient for them but:

a) it really is quite lame to have to name a specific ABI on the
command line when that's the default used for the platform.

b) i believe that is a fair fraction of the users...

Personally, I think the target triple should be able to select "the
rest" of the ABI, just as it currently selects part of the default ABI
(e.g. soft-float).
