Hmm, wait - I guess you need to keep them because of the custom
implementation. That's awkward, there shouldn't be a need to have
redundant declarations just because there are custom
implementations. How about making __HAVE_ARCH_* serve both
purposes, by allowing it to have different values (besides being
defined or undefined)?
