Ah, but the first problem is that I can't convince buildman that if I
have both /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc and /usr/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc
to let me set both "arm" and "armnone" to something.  Or even
/somewhere/else/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc and /usr/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc
Where does that need beating up? :)
