Not ok.  This would mismatch on

arm-blob-linux-gnueabi

and cause it to be treated as big-endian.

I was under the impression that gcc target specs were always triplets;
there are certainly lots of references in the gcc docs to "gcc target
triplet".

They haven't been strict triplets for a long time now. In fact, ever since somebody decided that linux wasn't enough and that gnu had to be mentioned as well... :-(


Are there cases in which the target can have more than 3 components?
If so, I could certainly change the test to use a regexp, or inline it
all of the ARM handlers in the case statement below.

Yes, anything with linux in it will now be a quadruplet. There may be other cases as well. Once a rule has been broken for one case, you can hardly enforce it against others. The rot has set in...
