Not really. Disabling multilib support within gcc would be quite
hard, but just testing whether a program can be linked with -mabi=64
is trivial, and we can thus avoid trying to create shared libraries
for this ABI. We could still create static ones, though, but they
wouldn't be of much use, so I'm inclined not to do it. How about the
attached patch?
