Yes, the patch to change powerpc64 -> powerpc64_hw is definitely a
gcc-16 patch.

It's never a bad thing asking for clarity!  That said, I am not an
official maintainer of the GCC rs6000 port.  That said, I believe this
would fall under the "obvious" rule, since this is a "dg-do run" test case
and the "has_arch_ppc64" test we're using is clearly a compile time only test
and the "powerpc64" is the correct hw test to check for 64-bit instruction
support on the test system.

If it were me, I'd give Segher and the others a couple of days to disagree
and not hearing any objections, I'd push it under the "obvious" rule.
