It looks good to me.  In the long run, I think we should allow target
selection based on the canonical system names as used by autoconf &
friends, i.e. i686-pc-linux-gnu or hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.11.  This makes
me wonder whether we should accept strings like "linux-gnu" or
"hpux11.11" as an argument for the "set osabi" command.
