What is the rationale for this change?

Contrary to what one might expect based on the names of those procedures
and the frequent pattern

  (or (%current-target-system) (%current-system))

(%current-target-system) returns a GNU triplet whereas (%current-system)
returns a Nix system.  A GNU triplet for MIPS64 will start with "mips64"
but is unlikely to be "mips64el-linux".
