Note that all of these hosts use ELF/svr4 shared libraries.  On
others, it fails to build.  I believe all of the Linux targets suffer
from this bug.

That might be considered an OK limitation for Linux targets.  But if
we're going to have a config listed in the MAINTAINERS list so we can
use it to verify that global changes don't break builds, we have to
ensure that those configs build on all hosts.
