But this can hide bugs, e.g. if in the future this function is called
by the ARM backend. It would be better either not to define this
function at all (best solution at it doesn't make sense on the ARM,
and issues would be detected at compile time) or have something like
an assert to abort if this function is called.

Mutt. I choose to display the text/plain part by default (thus not
needing an HTML parser, with potential security issues).
