To make it possible to (continue to) share the same gcc-cross etc
binaries between armv7a and armv7ve builds. It's the minimal change to
keep things working as they are now.

The more invasive, but perhaps more correct, change might be to
completely remove these "--with-arch=XXX" options from
gcc-configure-common.inc and replace them with "--with-cpu=XXX"
options in gcc-target.inc ?
