Since you are talking about the "long term", what you propose is
not what we want.
Roland, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the consensus
was that all machine-dependent macros should move out of the top-level
config.h.in, and into the machine directories.
Unfortunately that requires work and rejiggering and we just keep
putting the machine macros into the top-level config.h.in.
Cheers,
Carlos.
