I'm not sure if I get what you mean. The macro was more to avoid having to add 
every specific sparc arch in a spec if the build target were a specific sparc 
arch. Different compiler flags per sparc arch would still be independent of 
this..

I might of course be missing something, wouldn't be the first time. :o)
