These two were added ages ago, with an explicit comment "Hacks ..."
They have been insufficient for years and maintainers needed to
explicitly handle the build themselves.
Rather than lying and pretending that it works, just kill this hack and
let maintainers build things the way it should be done for their
distribution.
Document the removal in the release notes.
I've wanted to do this for a while. Gentoo has supported multilib
builds for a while and has never used these flags.
Let's put something in the documentation that describes how to do
32-bit builds on 64-bit platforms.
What kind of documentation do you have in mind ? IMHO "see how your
distribution builds 32bit 'stuff'" is the best one :)
I think just some info telling people to use
--build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu
instead of --enable-32-bit would be sufficient.
Definitely. I hate having to hunt down obscure stuff like that.
