I believe this corresponds to the old triplet Momchil Velikov used for his
Glibc-based port. It could, however, as well apply to the NetBSD-libc-based
port, but I believe that port is expected to match the generic NetBSD rule.
I'll sort it out and bring more patch if needed. It doesn't hurt to keep it
for now though.

Ok.
