Where the instruction set options conflict I really
don't think we should have a default selectable at
configure time. Having different people with different
qemu-m68k or qemu-mips being able to run or not run
different programs sounds very confusing. At least if
there's a command line option or a wrapper to set
environment then it's reasonably clear that the
config is different. Also if these different
variants are properly represented by different ELF
information you can then register several different
wrappers to handle different flavours of m68k
or mips binary correctly.
