Now, I'm not sure about ARM though but I think we can probably hide
most of the tweaks in system libs.
Well, for ARM, a vendor does not make that much sense, but we do need
some extra defines for it. E.g. ARMv5 can’t handle Thumb, but there
are Thumb versions of ARMv5. And that even is a problem if we don’t
use Thumb: Code that should be able to work together with Thumb code
needs to be Thumb aware, e.g. need bx instead of b. But bx only
exists on CPUs with Thumb. Or ARMv6 can’t handle movw/movt and many
other new instructions of ARMv7. If you target ARMv7, movw and movt
are used all over the place.
